Bryson DeChambeau really did swing for the fences in the second round at the Memorial. This time it cost him dearly.

A day after stunning the golfing world with an eye-catching 423-yard (387 metre) monster drive, the American was left cursing his misfortune at the tournament in Ohio.

The hulking American, who has turned heads with a super-sized body and swing that sends the ball nearly 200 mph (322 km/h) off the club and frequently more than 400 yards off the tee, was even par for the second round when one hole (a giant mental lapse) ruined everything.

He made a 10 on the par-five 15th, his highest score in the nearly 6,000 holes he has played in his PGA Tour career. He left the Memorial with rounds of 73-76, and without comment.

DeChambeau’s troubles started when he pulled his tee shot on the par-5 15th off a tree and into the stream well left of the fairway. A stubborn attempt to out-muscle the golf course ended up costing him a spot to play on the weekend at The Memorial.
