- Golfer says ‘the driver sucks’ after first-round 71 at the Open
- Manufacturer Cobra hits back at ‘never really happy’ client
Bryson DeChambeau has become embroiled in an extraordinary war of words with his equipment manufacturer after stating his driver “sucks” in the immediate aftermath of a first‑round 71 at the Open.
DeChambeau, known for huge length off the tee, believes the inability to find a driver compatible with his ferocious swing speed is continually hampering his performance. His comments were branded “stupid” by the club maker, Cobra, as news filtered back to the US.
