Tour pros, golf legends congratulate Bryson DeChambeau after U.S. Open win
Bryson DeChambeau won the 120th U.S. Open in a dominating performance Sunday at Winged Foot. Here’s a look at some of the congratulatory messages DeChambeau received from his peers and golf legends:
Two years and 40 pounds lighter, when @b_dechambeau won the @MemorialGolf, I recalled a conversation I had with him at @TheMasters, when I suggested he was destined for great things. A great thing happened to Bryson today with a @usopengolf title & his first major! 🏆👏 @USGA pic.twitter.com/gPUFMsz0tG

For 143 golfers, Winged Foot played as expected. But @b_dechambeau played different one. He’s always approached game differently but always w/ a plan. It worked wonderfully! Overpowered course but never let moment overwhelm him. Showed patience, poise. Congrats to fine young man!

Congrats to @b_dechambeau for winning the #USopen and his first major championship! Bryson has played a nearly flawless final round on a brutal Winged Foot. A deserving champion. Hopefully the first of many. All my best. pic.twitter.com/seGZhwmKVS

Say what you want about @b_dechambeau he might not be everyone’s cup of tea. His isn’t my cup of tea but what he is is a Major champion and I have huge respect for winning the @usopengolf. Changed his swing and body to try and over power golf courses. Done it his way. 👍🏼👊🏼

A lot of hating on the big man @b_dechambeau but no one works harder than that guy! Work ethic and passion to improve is incredible and awfully inspiring.
