LIV Adelaide: Bryson DeChambeau tops drive but shares lead

Advertisements

Bryson DeChambeau recovered from topping a drive to share the lead with home hope Marc Leishman after the first round of LIV Adelaide.

The two-time US Open champion mixed seven birdies and a bogey in his opening 66.

DeChambeau’s embarrassing thinned drive on the par-five 10th at Grange Golf Club landed on the path in front of the tee box and bounded up the fairway.

From there, the 32-year-old still managed to find the green in two and secured his birdie before gaining another four shots on the closing nine.

“Oh yeah, it was a great line drive into the tee box and bounced it off the cart path,” laughed DeChambeau.

“I had a nice scuff mark. Last time I did that was 2021 Players Championship off the fourth tee box and it cost me the title.

“But that shot was more of a thin shot. I just hit too far down on the ball. I actually struck it nicely. It was a perfect strike right into the tee box.

“It was awesome. Got to make sure I don’t hit it with too negative an attack angle next time.”
