Twitter Reacts to Bryson DeChambeau's Meltdown on the 15th Hole at the Memorial
Bryson DeChambeau melted down in epic fashion during the second round of the Memorial on Friday. On the par-5 15th hole DeChambeau carded a 10, but it wasn't just the overall score that was brutal, it was the way he got there. It appeared as if he'd angered the golf gods.
DeChambeau was terrible on the hole, hitting two balls out of bounds, one into a penalty area and two-putting once he finally reached the green. At one point he hit a 3-wood from the rough three times. Here are all the stats from it:
Official data of Bryson's 15th:

26 minutes
4 commercial breaks
3 3-woods from the rough
2 balls OB
2 rules officials
2 putts
1 penalty area
10 strokes.
At one point he petulantly argued with a rules official and wanted another opinion:
@NoLayingUp Bryson says “they’re giving me a garbage ruling like usual” and then something about “can’t let everything get f$&!’d?? pic.twitter.com/0s1bKGK3U0

Some highlights of Bryson’s 10 here. We pick up the action after the drop from the burn and contemplating a rather ambitious third shot. His attempt to claim his ball under a fence was in bounds shows a level of creativity beyond the rules of the game! pic.twitter.com/H83AeOyVuM

Twitter was quick to jump on DeChambeau, whose quintuple-bogey took him from +1 and safely in under the cut to +6 and done for the weekend.
Enjoy some of the best responses to his meltdown:
DeChambeau implosion alert. Out thick rough he hits 3 wood OB twice in a row (nearly three times) then kicks off at the rules official. Muscle don’t make up for golfing nous Bryson. #MemorialTournament #PGATour

Bryson hit 3-wood out of bounds from the left rough TWICE and pulled 3-wood a third time! I don't wanna be dramatic but this is the greatest sequence in the history of golf.

Just saw Bryson DeChambeau posted a 10 on hole 15. Haven’t seen a golfer post a 10 since Gilmore did it on the first hole of the 96’ Waterbury Open. Quite the company.
