Bryson DeChambeau credited a change of mindset for his stunning recovery from a dreadful start to finish the British Open at nine under par on Sunday.

Bryson DeChambeau had missed the cut three times in seven previous British Open appearances but he'll play the weekend in 2025.

Bryson DeChambeau woke up Friday morning with a 7-over first round at the British Open around his neck. He knew he'd need to do something special in order to make the weekend, and he did, firing a 6-under 65 to finish the day at 1-over to make the British Open cut.

Bryson DeChambeau admitted he wanted to quit The Open after a brutal first round but bounced back with seven birdies in Round 2.

Bryson DeChambeau is testing a prototype ball at the British Open that he claims flies straighter and spins more with wedges — but it’s not ready yet.

DeChambeau, who has never won a Claret Jug, hit his tee shot on the par-4 4th hole into a tough spot on the right. With the ball well above his feet and sitting down in gnarly long grass, he took a mighty cut at it and ended up looking like a lot of people who don't get paid to play golf. He shook off the miss and then hit his next shot a few feet.

Spieth entered Portrush with four straight top-25 Open finishes, so there should be plenty of confidence that he turns in a much better round on Friday. Making up a six-shot deficit will be tough, but if Spieth can get to even-par, or even one-under, he'll have a shot to get into the top 10 before the weekend.
