You know. I knew that wasn’t correct. Backed it out and misspelled it several times. Autocorrect didn’t help for some reason . Anyway , at times I have a mental block with spelling for some reason. Just wouldn’t come to me. And quite frankly I didn’t care enough to google it. But thanks. My wife ironically was an English Lit major as well as a masters in accounting. She hates my writing format ( I don’t want to call it a style ) as well as my lax spelling record. No grammar/ spelling police can chap me as much as she does.

 

Back to the topic so as to not get flagged again ( anonymously ) for spam . Lol.

 

There’s no story here. He didn’t pitch a fit. Nothing at all to discuss. He lost. He didn’t like it. That’s how it’s supposed to go.

Halfway to the driving range I assume he is told that Wolf drained the putt for eagle. He turns around to go to congratulate him. Dude may be slow and all, but he was all class in this. No pouting, a little disappointed that he's not in a playoff, but you know that's golf. I think some people are confused that either he was in the same pairing, or something ridiculous. Look on Instagram, he also congratulated Wolf. Wolf is such a humble kid he even thanked DeChambeau too, and said he was just trying to catch him. Honestly don't make something bad out of a real good situation.

 

I just watched the finish again this morning. Your TV showed the same thing as mine. Amazing! I'm not a big Bryson fan but I sure didn't see where he acted like a jerk. He had just sunk a eagle putt to what he thought would put him in at least a playoff. Most guys would been disappointed.

Well, this is a good place to start:

[ralph11]

Most golfers are very nice. I watched an extended interview of Bryson. Seriously nice man.

[Mcgeeno]

Seems like a nice guy off course.

 

He's slow as molasses and a whiner on the course though and he makes it very tough for me to root for him.

 

Thats OK. I doubt he gives a crap haha.

 

 

[bladehunter]

Of course he’s nice. Come on. It’s ridiculous. In this day and time , if he cussed the cat at 3am somebody would record it and post it. If you can live in the public eye without scandal , you’re a reasonably decent human. Then it just comes down to personality preference.

dont pull a muscle with that reach...

[mukster]

I’m certainly not a Bryson fan, but I believe he’s a genuinely good guy.

The comparison to Phil at the 99’ US Open doesn’t fly to me. Phil and Payne were in the same group, Bryson and Wolff were not. Are players now obligated to stick around and give bro hugs to the winner? I know this has become extremely trendy but I don’t think less of a player who doesn’t. I’m no BAD fanboy, he’s given people plenty of reason not to love him, but this particular occasion is not on the them.

[williamsnrb]

Disagree. He seemed disappointed, but who wouldn't be? He played very well and just got beat. No shame in that.

 

Now, if we want to talk about his use of "physics" and the constant "mad scientist" references, I'm all for knocking those things. He didn't even graduate from an undergraduate program - he's hardly a scientist. And several of his public statements on the physics of the swing are fundamentally flawed. No matter, though, because he does not need to understand swing kinematics to win golf tournaments. Let the kid be.

[musclefront]

Bryson sucks. When asked what’s up with your back and you name the wrong muscles and then say, “for you guys, I hurt my lower back” and then when asked about the flagstick rule when your second shot on a par five hit it and you say, “the terminal velocity....etc.” TERMINAL VELOCITY means no friction. A green and air is friction. He’s a tool using terms he thinks no one knows for his “scientist” brand. Cmon already he sucks

[Frostfield]

He’s an obvious ***ks***er. You aren’t allowed to be an a** cause

You’re intense or “want it the most”. Sry. Grow TF up.

We weren't talking about the "scientist" side of him. We were talking about his manners on the golf course .

I was wondering the same thing but I figured the poster is a very important individual though since he didn't even have time to spell out most of what he posted.

Yea. I called my 11 year old in to see if it was millennial. And he could translate. He said “ sorry man. No clue what that says “. Lol.

[jgonz69]

What a jerk

[Barfolomew]

Video of said reaction or it didnt happen....

[jjr]

He's competitive and hates to lose, nothing wrong with that.

Had Payne missed there would have been a playoff, not a loss. Bryson was probably getting up to take him out in the playoff and he missed!!

the constant speed that a freely falling object eventually reaches when the resistance of the medium through which it is falling prevents further acceleration.

Which has nothing to do with the way he tried to use the term.

I agree!

you play golf for fun.. he doesn't.

Totally disagree. You should watch the Feherty interview with DeChambeau. It was quite enlightening. He is a good guy.
