5 years ago - Sportingbase
Bryson DeChambeau of Modesto, California, has won his first PGA event of 2021. On Sunday at the Arnold Palmer Classic at the Bay Hill Golf Club and Lodge in Orlando, Florida, DeChambeau posted a four-round score of -11 to beat England’s Lee Westwood by one stroke, and Canada’s Corey Conners by three strokes.
Where DeChambeau delivered his greatest praise was from his monster tee shots on the sixth hole, which received loud applause from the 5,000 spectators in attendance. DeChambeau had a tee shot of 370 yards in the third round followed by a shot of 377 yards in the fourth round according to Adam Schupak of Golfweek. While most golfers played it safe and aimed right of the lake, DeChambeau had no problems in going over it.
DeChambeau had a first-round score of five-under-par, a second-round score of one-under-par, a third-round score of three-under-par 68, and a fourth-round score of one-under-par 71. It was DeChambeau’s eighth career PGA title. He previously won the 2017 John Deere Classic, the 2018 Memorial Tournament, the 2018 Northern Trust, the 2018 Dell Technologies Championship, the 2018 Shriners Hospital for Children Open, the 2020 Rocket Mortgage Classic, and the 2020 U.S. Open.

Now the world’s best men’s golfers will stay in the state of Florida. Starting Thursday, the Players Championship from TPC Sawgrass will take place. Last year the tournament was cancelled after the first round due to coronavirus. Hideki Matsuyama of Japan had a two-stroke lead after tying the course record with a nine-under-par 63. The tournament is expected to have spectators at 20% capacity. Masks will be required , however not all fans wore masks this past weekend at Bay Hill.
