Bryson DeChambeau’s Struggles Continue Two Years After U.S. Open Win

This weekend marks two years since Bryson DeChambeau secured his second U.S. Open championship. However, given his recent performances, it feels like a distant memory.

Currently, DeChambeau’s game has been faltering. This season, he has missed all major tournament cuts, including a recent 5-over at the U.S. Open. His third missed cut during majors this season highlights a concerning trend. In one embarrassing moment, he concluded the Masters with a triple bogey in the 18th hole, also failing to make the cut.

Once a player with significant promise, he had captivated fans and media alike following notable victories, including triumphs in the U.S. Open in 2020 and 2024 after intense competition, notably against Rory McIlroy.

Things have shifted dramatically in 2026. DeChambeau has yet to play a weekend at a major tournament, resembling a pattern of consistent disappointment. His ongoing struggles and inability to deliver strong performances are beyond defense. DeChambeau’s double missing the cut at Shinnecock Hills exemplifies his recent difficulties.

LIV Golf reflects similarly negative sentiments, as only six of thirteen participants advance at the U.S. Open. Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, and Cam Smith find themselves unable to make the cut.

DeChambeau appears troubled both on and off the course. He has shown interest in focusing more on his YouTube channel rather than improving his golf, even expressing intentions to expand his channel globally. He has stated previously that the entertainment aspect of golf, including his YouTube efforts, overshadows professional play.

Amidst talk of growing his digital presence, uncertainty looms over his potential for a comeback in professional golf.

Following three majors with consistently poor results, expectations falter for any rebound. DeChambeau’s path remains unclear as he faces ongoing challenges. These developments mark one of his most challenging seasons to date.
