Bryson DeChambeau vs Tommy Fleetwood - WGC Match Play 2021

[@aneeseellary3098]

That’s a “How to win without finding a fairway” masterclass from Fleetwood.

[@connordemorest6750]

Bryson didn’t seem to make any putts outside of 2 feet, but I can’t find stats to see if that was true

Tiger Woods has a good quote that describes how Fleetwood won this match: "We all know that out here, everyone's good is good. But how good is your bad?"

[@johnnyk4115]

That's not how Fleetwood won this match lol. He had very bad shots like his driver at the 18 but Bryson just couldn't make his putts.

[@yeetymcyeetersson1639]

Johnny K y so Fleetwood’s “bad” meant missing a few fairways, while Bryson’s “bad” is missing crucial putts and losing the match because of it. Seems like you’re proving my point further

[@ExtremePainGames]

[@robot3759]

See I like Bryson for all the cool little tricks he comes up with (whether they work or not is a different story) but by god I always feel bad for whoever he is playing with. Like this man is gonna start checking the position of Venus in the sky so its gravitational pull doesn't affect his putting stroke I swear.

[@lerugolf]

And his putting stance is so awkwardly awful.

[@oliverizzard8751]

Without spectators, caddies, cameras and marshalls how many balls would these guys lose? I swear they'd be losing 6 strokes for penalty shots every round.

[@Thisisfun918]

Interesting thought!!

[@matthewthompson6455]

These players probably have a pretty good feel for where their misses go, 6 strokes sounds like a lot in a round even if theyre as far from the fairway as fleetwood in this one.

[@paweslusarczyk1056]

You'd be surprised. Last year there were no spectators nor marshals on the European Tour events all year and the players would always know where to look, and very rarely lost any balls. I was often surprised how good of a feel they've got as to where to look and I couldn't even find the ball, standing 15 metres from where it had landed.

[@maxcaysey2844]

Bryson lost a ball at the one of the majors last year... he was pretty frustrated. Because the ball had not been lost if there had been spectaters. But IIRC he was the only one to loose a ball that week, so not many lost balls at all!

[@acsoccer001]

4:43 How the fuck do you get THAT much backspin hitting off the god damn cart path?!?

[@jordandouvartzidis1745]

Tommy, pure class.

[@JT-rk8ix]

That course is insane

[@LedZeplican]

I feel like Dechambeau could be unstoppable if only he worked on his short game. This match was the difference in short game alone. Even with Fleetwood putting two in a row into the water, he has the match in the bag early in it seemed. Fleetwood is twice the short gamer that Dechambeau is in this match. I feel like Dechambeau is more concerned with breaking his long carry records, his club head speed records and all that. Someone should tell him that Fleetwoods drives here were as effective if not more so and that if only he really did have his short game honed, he could be one of the greatest.

[@brbaabrb7296]

Golf gods even tested Tommy here. Great win.

[@socloseyetsofar673]

Moral of the story: it matters not how far you hit, Your long game is validated by your short one. Bryson will never dominate the game for as long as his short game remains mediocre!

[@danmyers9372]

Obviously you are unaware that DeChambeau led the PGA tour last year in % of putts made under 10’. This day was just a bad day with the putter which happens to every player on occasion.

[@MrStones2010]

Wow what a match!

[@christianolson8543]

Fleetwood’s driver is not crazy long, so on a PGA level course, he’s hitting 170-210 shots into the green on many par 4s. Doesn’t seem to bother him.

[@faydogg21h]

The commentary and play by play needs to go in golf “sportscasting” . Professional golf tournaments would have way more viewers if they were more with the times.

@James WOODSIDE old enough😩

[@seanmaloney4663]

A 3 foot putt is the same exact stroke as a 350 drive. You drive once a hole, but 3 putting loses

[@mrsmartypants_1]

Many holes have OB on the drive. You put it OB and you’re driving again. Hitting 3. So not “same exact stroke” at all 😏

[@Thatonechingadera45]

@@mrsmartypants_1 on the score card it’s one stroke, you can also theoretically hit putter OB or into hazard just as you can a drive.

[@mrsmartypants_1]

@@Thatonechingadera45 On the score card it is NOT one stroke. It is 2. Hit a drive out of bounds and you Must hit again from the tee box and you’re hitting 3. I realize many amateur cheaters walk up to where it went out of bounds and throw out a ball and claim they are hitting 3. They are not.

[@Thatonechingadera45]

@@mrsmartypants_1 if you hit the ball in bounds which you should be doing it’s 1, which no matter if it’s a putt or a drive any forward movement of the ball counts as a stroke, just as I said you can AT ANY POINT hit the ball OB or into hazards with any shot, every shot you line up to, will be counted as one stroke unless you screw up. Stop with the stupid ass argument of “OB?!?!??”

[@Thatonechingadera45]

@@mrsmartypants_1 the argument OP is making is that no matter how far you hit your drive it’s still “1” on the scorecard, no where in there did OB come into discussion, but since you bring it up, I’ve made the point clear that you can very well hit a put OB, so you still have the same exact variance of stroke lining up to a putt or drive. So again, a drive and a putt will look the exact same on the scorecard.

Stylewood vs Brawnsen The best of both worlds in an epic battle

[@chestermicek]

Bryson stunk in this mismatch. Fleetwood was not at his best, but Bryson was at his worst. He couldn't hit a wedge or make a putt. That said, he's improved a lot for 2024. He's finding more fairways with his driver, hitting much more accurate wedges, and judging greens far better. It's a bit of a joke, but it wouldn't bring a laugh if it weren't true: Bryson was more accurate with his driver against Fleetwood than he was with his wedges or his putter. He just smelled like he played.

[@stevethegoat8619]

I guess I don’t actually mind Bryson, I just figured out that its the commentators that make him so unlikeable with their stupid remarks about him “calculating” and applying all this “science”. If it worked that well he’d win more; shut up about it.
