Bryson DeChambeau has shared how he’s feeling about the 3D-printed Irons he’s using for the PGA Championship this week.
The 2020 U.S. Open Champion made a last-minute switch before the Masters, gaining late approval from the USGA. The clubs are all one length, used by DeChambeau before, and include bulge and roll on the face to improve forgiveness.
After landing a top-ten finish at Augusta, the early signs were undoubtedly positive for the American.
And now, DeChambeau has opened up on how he feels about his new irons ahead of this week’s event at Valhalla.

Speaking to Golf Channel, DeChambeau has admitted he’s pleased with the 3D-printed Irons thus far.
“I learned the equipment worked under an immense amount of pressure,” he explained.
“Whether it performs or not is down to me and if I can make it perform. I know it’s at a level now where it’s pretty much good at any venue.
“I just got to play good golf. That’s what I learned from Augusta. If the putting was better, I would’ve given myself a good shot.”
Can Bryson DeChambeau compete at Valhalla this week?
To be considered amongst the world’s best, DeChambeau needs to start adding more major titles to his resume, particularly after his move to LIV Golf.
One U.S. Open for a player of his calibre isn’t good enough.
He needs to start delivering on his confident statements made before the four biggest tournaments of the year.
DeChambeau should be well-suited to the layout at the PGA Championship. Long par-fours can be dismantled with a driver and a short iron, whilst the majority of the field will have a longer club in hand.
If the 30-year-old can find the fairway, he does stand a chance of contending. It’s up to DeChambeau to handle his high expectations.
