After staying so calm under pressure to win this year’s U.S. Open<\/a>, it might seem like nothing can rattle Bryson DeChambeau. But, like all golfers, even a two-time major champion stresses out every once in awhile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what’s the No. 1 thing that causes DeChambeau anxiety on the practice range? He recently revealed his answer to our Dylan Dethier on GOLF’s Warming Up<\/em><\/a> (and talked about a bunch of other topics, too), which you can see in the video below. (Ed. Note: The tip begins at the 8:58 mark in the video below, or on YouTube here<\/a>)<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n

Bryson DeChambeau reveals what stresses him out on the practice range<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dethier asks DeChambeau what his common miss is, with the U.S. Open champ saying it’s a chunk. But that’s not really what causes him the most stress when hitting on the range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“What gets me stressed is improper curvature,” DeChambeau says. “If I’m thinning or chunking it, I’m OK with it. But if it starts curving too much one way, that’s when I really get stressed.”<\/p>\n\n\n

Why Bryson DeChambeau purposely mishits some shots<\/a><\/blockquote>\n By:<\/span>\n \n \n Nick Dimengo <\/a>\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/figcaption>\n <\/figure>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

So what does DeChambeau do to overcome those types of mishits? He simply practices for longer and hits more balls until the issue alleviates itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“That’s when you’ll see me hit golf balls [on the practice range] for quite awhile,” he quips. “So it’s just getting back to basics, yeah.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While most amateur golfers get frustrated with mishits like topped or chunked shots<\/a>, players of DeChambeau’s caliber expect their ball-flight to be nearly perfect \u2014 and when it’s not, that’s the type of thing that really gets under their skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
