Sportsman of the Week Ending 6/16/2024
The late Spring sports engine chugs on with big moments across multiple sports and tough to pick, but we're going for one of the best golfers in the world that won the United States Open. Bryson DeChambeau was a steady force in a shaky field to outlast his opponents and the Pinehurst #2 course to win his second Open in five years. Not many win two. DeChambeau was among the leaders all weekend, as some surged and some faded. Relying on length and somewhat surprising, approach play including saves he was able to beat Rory McIlroy by one stroke after the Northern Irelander couldn't knock down putts when it counted. But take nothing away from DeChambeau, who consistently would hit long and wayward and would need to find ways around the green to get up and down. Including the 18th (72nd hole) where he hit a shot left, saved into a bunker, then up and down where nobody could. Exemplary of great golf and Bryson DeChambeau is the Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
