Bryson DeChambeau has revealed the golfing great who has had the most profound influence on his game, placing Tiger Woods’s guidance above Phil Mickelson’s.
He lavished praise during a recent episode of his ‘Break 50’ YouTube series, which featured NFL superstar Tom Brady. While swapping stories on the green, DeChambeau opened up about how both Woods and Mickelson have significantly shaped his game.
Amidst Mickelson’s high-profile move to LIV Golf, a league DeChambeau also joined, he reflected on their legendary status and storied rivalry.
“Phil is the most knowledgeable man when it comes to wedging and hitting around the greens,” DeChambeau admitted. “He is incredibly intelligent, but I have to say Tiger is the one that taught me a lot. He has taught me so much about putting, shot shaping, and controlling distance.
“Just random little tips of information, but he doesn’t always give them though. You learn through the way he looks at things, you watch his eyes and what he is trying to gather.
“A lot of it is in his hands, so I took a lot of what he said ‘Dude, it is all in your hands, you have to feel the golf club’.
