There is no doubt that DeChambeau has shown an incomparable set of skills on the course in the initial round of the PGA Championship. The golfer held a really long lead during the first round; however, he later lost it to the PGA Tour star. Eric Cole, who notably, still has four more holes to play! Nonetheless, fans have been sticking to the live broadcast of the tournament, especially to see the golf scientist back in action.

Despite his commendable performance at Oak Hill, the golf star is in the news for another reason as of now. And a rather hilarious one! A recent interview picture of Bryson DeChambeau is currently making the rounds and receiving lots of attention from fans. And surprisingly, it has nothing to do with his golfing skills or talents.

As seen in the picture posted by Monday Q Info, Bryson Dechambeau is wearing a cap that features the names of one of his sponsors and private jet giants, NetJets. The company was acquired by the $722.75 billion company, Berkshire Hathaway, a few years ago and has been associated with the golf hulk for quite some time. However, the catch was that the cap apparently displayed the name of the brand misspelled as ‘Netiets’. The observant fans, of course, quickly caught onto that and had lots to say!
