Overview
- DeChambeau posted a detailed YouTube video on Saturday reviewing every shot from his U.S. Open rounds and saying his play was “not good enough.”
- He has missed the cut at the Masters, the PGA Championship and the U.S. Open, marking the first time in his major career he has missed three straight weekends.
- Statistical reviews of Shinnecock Hills show he gained about 1.83 strokes off the tee but lost roughly 1.99 strokes on approach, with wedge, short‑game and putting errors producing costly doubles.
- DeChambeau said he has been working harder on his swing and denied that his YouTube content or LIV Golf commitments are ruining his game, while accepting the need for better decision making.
- Beyond on‑course form, his situation is tied to business uncertainty at LIV Golf after PIF said it will end funding after 2026, and the Open Championship at Royal Birkdale on July 16–19 is his immediate opportunity to reverse the slide.
