“I can compete every sequel week in and week out” - Bryson DeChambeau's confidence soars ahead of Major season with his equipment upgrades
The Major season is approaching and Bryson DeChambeau is one of the players who has high aspirations for it. He is confident that he is in a good place in his career and intends to prove it.
DeChambeau was a guest on the latest episode of the "Fairway To Heaven" podcast, which covers the LIV Golf circuit. DeChambeau answered questions about his current level of play and his confidence heading into not only the LIV season but also the Majors.
Here's what Bryson DeChambeau had to say:
"[My confidence] It's higher than it's probably ever been. But I don't want to put expectation levels on myself, there's no need to. I've got equipment that really works very well for me. And I'm in a place with the equipment that allows me to showcase my full skill set. And there's a couple tweaks with the swing they're going to happen every once in a while but for the most part, I can compete anywhere and everywhere now."
"And I'm excited to showcase that ability. Because I haven't really had that since I've play professional golf. I mean there were a couple times where I felt pretty good but I just couldn't put all four rounds together, for whatever reason it was and whatever situation it was. Now that I've got a better handle on my equipment I really feel like I can compete every sequel week in and week out. Doesn't matter if it's a LIV event, doesn't matter if it's a Major. I feel like everywhere I can win."
