CARROLLTON, Texas – Bryson DeChambeau's up-and-down from the bunker on the 18th hole at Pinehurst No. 2 will forever be captured in video highlights.
The 30-year-old became a two-time US Open champion when he made par on his 72nd hole on Father's Day weekend, thanks to a shot from the trap that golfers only dream of.
No one can blame DeChambeau for talking about it and reliving it constantly. He says he does it “every day.”

But it wasn't just the bunker shot that he remembers.
“The bunker shot is unbelievable, but there are a couple of shots I hit over the course of that week. The 8th hole, I hit it over the green twice, and I was up and down twice. I won the tournament because of that,” DeChambeau told Fox News Digital in a recent interview.
“If I don't get that up and down, I might not win the tournament. It's really the culmination of the whole week and how things unfolded that made it such a memorable week.”
DeChambeau had a little help. Rory McIlroy missed six feet on his final three holes and fell short, his major drought stretching to more than 10 years.

McIlroy was, at one point, perhaps the most vocal PGA golfer against LIV.
“You never want to lose a championship like that. You want to see somebody sink a putt and do something crazy and cool. But I can tell you there was a battle between us. It was definitely LIV vs. PGA, for sure,” DeCheambeau said.
“People can take it as they want, but from my perspective it's a good, competitive battle that attracts public attention.

“It was one of the most watched major championships in a long time and I thank Rory for that. I think everyone, the USGA, how everyone came together on the 18th hole at Pinehurst, it couldn't have been a better ending.”
