“Let’s talk about slow play, guys,”
DeChambeau told reporters after concluding a third-round 71 that left him eight shots off the pace at Liberty National.
“When people start talking to me about slow play and how I’m killing the game, I’m doing this and that to the game, that is complete and utter you-know-what. That’s not fair.”
DeChambeau, who is known for an idiosyncratic approach that includes using clubs all cut to the same length and a mathematical approach to reading greens, said he felt he was “somehow being singled out.”
“It’s really kind of unfortunate the way it’s perceived because there’s a lot of other guys that take a lot of time,” DeChambeau said.
DeChambeau said that none of his Twitter critics had spoken to him personally.
“We are all trying to do our best to play well and make our livelihoods and win tournaments, right,” DeChambeau said.
“But when you start attacking people on Twitter, it’s like, come on, dude. Let’s have some more balls to come and speak to my face about that.”
Good morning. Bryson DeChambeau responded to no less than 25 slow-play comments on @GOLF_com‘s Insta post last night.

Clearly not slow to responding on IG. Now he just has to apply that efficiency to his golf game.
