But this wasn’t the case earlier in his career. During his initial professional days, the Scientist was very skinny. But with sheer hard work, DeChambeau changed the sport and went on to earn the name “The Incredible Bulk”.

Over the years, the perception of golfers has been as someone who’s slightly skinny and scrawny. There has hardly been any golfer who has been muscular and bulky like DeChambeau. So it is quite evident that the 28-year-old is redefining the typical golfer image in his own style.

Known as the “Mad Scientist“, when he first appeared on the scene in 2016, his experiments included cutting all of his clubs to the same length and immersing golf balls in Epsom salt to measure their center of gravity. Coming from a Physics background, DeChambeau loved experimenting.
