‘Not going to make this about me’- DeChambeau on controversies surrounding him
Talking about the hate he receives, DeChambeau said: “We’re all humans at the end of the day and I think there’s obviously a level of control that any human will ever have. You can have a lot of armour and you can protect yourself with people around you and all that. I’m not going to make this about me again.” Agreeing that this is a team event, he said, “I’ve got a brass chest. I’ve taken a lot of heat. But I’m OK with it and I understand I’m in the place where I’m at, and it’s going to be that way moving forward.”
