It is not wrong to say that Bryson DeChambeau is the bravest player in the golf world right now. After all, he changed his clubs to his linkings and even changed his physique to improve his game. This led many to criticize him. However, one person would have appreciated such innovations in the sport; The legendary golfer who wanted each golfer to be unique – Arnold Palmer

Arnie always had one piece of advice for every golfer, “swing your swing.” He never wanted one player to perfect their swings by imitating others. “Perfect in its imperfection,” the late golfer always used to say“Swing your swing. I know, I did.”
