Bryson DeChambeau hits Kenny Pigman with wayward tee shot at PGA Championship

Skilled golfers, they’re similar to us.

Or, no less than on the uncommon event that the course will get the higher of them, which has been the case by way of the early stretch on the PGA Championship on Thursday.

In one of many extra relatable moments Bryson DeChambeau has ever had, the 2020 U.S. Open champion missed so badly on one tee shot that he hit Kenny Pigman, who was teeing up a ball on the 18th gap.

DeChambeau, apparently, had yelled “fore” and apologized for the transgression.

After lacking the reduce at The Masters, DeChambeau is having a strong spherical to start out off his PGA Championship, sitting at 4-under by way of 16 holes at Oak Hill Nation Membership in Pittsford, N.Y., tied for the lead on the time with Keegan Bradley.

That half, maybe, doesn’t evoke the sensation of being one thing any of us might do.

The majors are the one high-profile tournaments DeChambeau might be taking part in in anytime quickly, as he joined the LIV Golf tour final season, and is thus barred from competing in PGA Tour occasions.

On the Saudi-backed tour this season, DeChambeau’s greatest end was tenth place in each Chicago and Portland whereas his staff, The Crushers GC, has but to win this yr.

DeChambeau’s greatest ever end at a PGA Championship was fourth place in 2020.
