DeChambeau’s wedge play has prevented him from threatening Scottie Scheffler’s title as world number one. It cost him a chance of the Green Jacket last year at Augusta, and his short game woes reared their head at the Ryder Cup.
The American’s biggest strength is his distance off the tee, but that’s useless if he’s consistently missing greens from 100 yards. That’s why DeChambeau has completely revamped his wedge game in the lead-up to this year’s Masters. He turned up at LIV South Africa with a bag full of wedges and narrowed the selection down to just one club.
And after his first round at the event, there are some encouraging signs.

That’s a scary sign for the rest of the field at Augusta National .
The two-time US Open winner said, “Today was an improvement. Last week was an improvement with the wedges, and sometimes it’s just trying anything and everything to find that 1%. Like Anthony Kim talks about, getting 1% better every day.
