When Bryson DeChambeau’s Caddie Humorously Stole His Thunder on a Rare Occasion

Bryson DeChambeau is one of the prominent golfers in the world, ranking at 33 on the OWGR standings. Although he is famous for his power-hitting, there was an instance when he became popular because of his caddie. However, the reason for it was not something he would be proud of! 

Since the beginning of this year, DeChambeau has been missing the majority of the events due to multiple injuries. After taking some rest to heal his hip and wrist injury, the golfer made a comeback at the World Golf Championship Dell Match Play. 

Many had expected to watch the Mad Scientist hitting bombs at the Austin Country Club, Texas. However, the golfer failed to deliver them because of his injuries, as he had announced earlier. Yet, the golfer still managed to grab the attention of the golf world, thanks to his caddie’s unusual socks! 

The caddie goes viral because of the socks!

“That is a disturbing pair of socks.” A commentator of WGC-Dell Match Play couldn’t control himself from commenting about DeChambeau‘s caddie’s socks when the camera focused on them. 

Brian Zeigler has been caddying for DeChambeau for a year then. He joined the golfer after he fired Tim Tucker, who assisted him in his eight PGA Tour victories. 

Zeigler sported a pair of circa-1970 striped tube socks pulled high up his leg at the tournament. The socks attracted many comments from the netizens. “Sorry but Bryson DeChambeau should be penalised a hole for his caddie wearing those socks. They are wrong in so many ways,” a golf writer tweeted.

“Did Bryson’s caddie lose a bet? What’s the deal with the socks?” another sports writer wondered. Some even found the socks a brilliant choice!

How many titles have Bryson DeChambeau and Brian Zeigle won together? 

According to his PGA Tour profile, DeChambeau has won 9 titles worldwide, including a major championship. He won his last tournament at the 2021 Arnold Palmer Invitational, which he won with Tim Tucker on his bag. 

DeChambeau and Zeigler haven’t won a title together. Notably, DeChambeau hasn’t played many events due to his injuries since his new caddie joined him. 

Although he wasn’t able to win a title with the golfer, his socks had made quite a stir in the golf world. What did you think of those socks?
