Bryson DeChambeau, known for his scientific approach to golf, has added muscle and mass to his frame in an effort to hit the ball farther. He opened the Masters with a 7-under 65, his best start in a major.
Bryson DeChambeau was the mad scientist who calculated barometric pressure and the decay of spin rate in altitude when trying to figure out how to best play the game.Then he became the incredible bulk, adding 40 pounds of muscle and mass with a diet of some 3,500 calories a day in an effort to swing the club faster and hit the ball farther than anyone.The third iteration he showed at the Masters on Thursday might be the most daunting.
There was no doubting the break Scheffler got with his second shot on the par-5 13th, when he flinched upon hearing a shot hit from another fairway. Scheffler’s ball came up short, and he assumed it would roll back into the tributary of Rae’s Creek that winds in front of the green.The turf was soft enough that it stayed up, and he chipped it close to make birdie."I’ve never seen a ball stay up there," Scheffler said. "I don’t know if that will happen again this week.
