Bryson's Team Expanding To A Robot

Swing instructors now have to be around for four days folding their arms, looking like some mix of tense, bored, constipated, annoyed to be repeating the same things and wondering if they’re charging enough to babysit. But it sounds like Bryson DeChambeau might be making the first step toward a little R2D2 in his life (C3PO talks too much).

Q.  Rory was telling us earlier that he's trying to commit to playing one shape off the tee. As one who's really into the numbers, do you have one shot you try to play all the time or do you try to work it?

BRYSON DeCHAMBEAU:  I try to play a draw but it doesn't always work out. Sometimes I get the high right ball and then the snap left. I've got to work on keeping it consistent. We're doing some interesting research at high ball speeds. There's some stuff that's not lining up with what we know currently right now and it takes a robot to be able to see what's going on. So we're going to be doing research over the next few months to figure out how to get it to go straight at high ball speeds. It's just not known right now.

After returning from Dallas for the Wells Fargo Championship weekend after thinking he’d missed the cut, DeChambeau posted a final round 68 to finish T9.
