Seeking a Breakthrough at $25 Million Event, Bryson DeChambeau Makes a Daunting Mental Confession

Caddies play a very significant role in golf. Besides carrying players’ bags, they also provide suggestions for improved gameplay. Many golfers have stayed in long-term collaboration with their caddies. But it seems, LIV golfer Bryson DeChambeau, has a new one.

For the $25 million worth LIV Golf – Greenbrier event at The Old White, ‘the Scientist’ is accompanied by a new caddie, and he is currently one of the leading names on the leaderboard. Does it have something to do with who is accompanying him? Let’s find out.

Bryson DeChambeau opens up about his new caddie

DeChambeau is one of the strong contenders at the current Greenbrier LIV event. He is yet to win a LIV event. Do you think this would be it for him? He does look like he is carrying positive spirits in a recently shared Instagram video.

The caption reads, “Bryson is back to having fun out there.”

In the video, he can be seen talking about his new caddie, Greg Bodine. The reporter points out that DeChambeau and his new caddie’s relationship seems to be clicking, further asking him to say something about it.

“Yeah, I mean, I don’t know what it is. He just allows me to have a lot of fun on the golf course. And that’s something I struggle with a lot. So it’s nice to have someone that can just make a joke after something weird happens and keep me in the right frame of mind.”

DeChambeau is having fun on the field, something that is vital for a good game too. Kudos to Mr. Greg Bodine?

The LIV Golfer’s odds at Greenbrier

DeChambeau recently credited an alignment adjustment in his shoulder for his improved performance at the Greenbrier. It is essential to be comfortable in one’s body, mainly when you use it to swing the ball. And that is one of the things that the pro golfer believes has changed. His open shoulders were helping him adjust his vision to see the ball and putt it more clearly.

And he scored several long putts in round 2 on Saturday. He also scored the most birdies on the greens and is playing well. Additionally, if he can have fun on the field, that also puts him in a perfect position.

DeChambeau’s caddie, Greg Bodine, has long been on the golf course. But he also played and coached the game at various phases. It looks like the LIV golfer has both experience and knowledge in his hands, with Greg on his side. And as he has acknowledged, he is having fun too.

Do you think the positive atmosphere around DeChambeau will take him to win the LIV Golf – Greenbrier event? The final round will happen on Sunday, and the winner will be known soon. Let us know your hunch in the comments below.
