It\u2019s been a disappointing season for someone of the talent of Bryson DeChambeau.<\/p>\n

The two-time US Open winner entered The Open Championship looking to avoid becoming the first multiple-time major winner under 40 to miss all four major cuts in a single season. He did so, finishing T14, but it only papered over what has been a poor year at the biggest events. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s been slightly better on LIV, where DeChambeau has won twice this season, but Jon Rahm is still threatening to run away with the individual title, winning for the third straight season. DeChambeau may be LIV\u2019s biggest star, but Rahm is clearly LIV\u2019s best player. <\/p>\n

With only a few events left in the LIV schedule, DeChambeau gave an honest reflection on his season as a whole at LIV UK.<\/p>\n

DeChambeau has not won this much on LIV since his debut season in 2023. While he remains some way off the top of the individual standings, DeChambeau says that 2026 has actually been his best year on the tour. <\/p>\n

Speaking after his second round at LIV UK, where he is in contention, DeChambeau said, \u201cIt\u2019s funny, I feel like I\u2019ve had my best year out here this year, and for whatever reason, I feel like I\u2019ve left a lot out there, which is quite interesting to me, but very grateful for having a great year out here.<\/p>\n

\u201cJon\u2019s played some great golf. I don\u2019t know where he is. I don\u2019t know where he finished, but I\u2019m sure he\u2019s going to be a force to be reckoned with the next couple of days and in New Jersey as well, finishing out the season.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite having a disastrous year at the majors, DeChambeau says his game is still in a great place. <\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cI don\u2019t really know what to say. I feel like this year I was ready to go. I felt ready to go this year. It didn\u2019t work out that way in the majors. I feel really comfortable with my game, as comfortable as I felt in a long time.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel pretty close to Greenbrier, the way I was playing the past couple days. Just a couple little tweaks here and there with the driver and 3-wood, and I feel like I\u2019m right there. I\u2019m knocking on that door.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs it relates to the season, I played great. I\u2019m happy that \u2014 my first year out here, I was struggling quite a bit. I turned it around obviously, later in that year in \u201923. In \u201922 I wasn\u2019t really doing that great either. It\u2019s just one of those things I feel like I\u2019ve progressed and gotten better as a golfer in different conditions.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s taken me a little bit. I wasn\u2019t necessarily an international golfer coming out in the professional ranks. I feel like I\u2019ve become more of a complete golfer in that regard. So you\u2019re still always learning.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bryson DeChambeau is having his worst statistical season in three years <\/p>\n

DeChambeau might say he\u2019s feeling comfortable out there, but numbers say this is the worst he\u2019s played across the board since 2023. <\/p>\n

His total Strokes Gained average is +1.16 in 2026, which is significantly lower than his last two seasons. He\u2019s worse in every single statistical category this year compared to last, and he\u2019s only fractionally better with his iron play than he was in 2024. <\/p>\n

2023 would have been a much better season for DeChambeau too, but that year he struggled immensely with his putting. He\u2019s worked hard to correct that, but he\u2019s seen a decline in every other area of his game. <\/p>\n

Winning LIV UK this week would make this year the most successful of his LIV career, but the numbers tell us his game is not where it was last year when he was challenging Rory McIlroy at The Masters. <\/p>\n
