Overview
- DeChambeau missed the cut at his third straight major when he finished five-over at the U.S. Open and fell one stroke short of the weekend.
- He posted a detailed YouTube video on Saturday, June 27, reviewing every shot from his two rounds at Shinnecock Hills and offering a candid self-assessment.
- Tournament metrics show he gained significant distance off the tee but lost strokes on approach and around the greens, with analysis citing a +1.83 strokes gained off the tee and −1.99 on approach.
- In the video he said he has been working harder on his swing than in prior years but 'hasn't figured it out,' and he answered questions about whether his YouTube work or LIV Golf ties are hurting his play.
- His next major opportunity is the Open Championship at Royal Birkdale from July 16–19, a close deadline for technical fixes that could determine his short-term competitive path and influence his broader career choices.
