Bryson DeChambeau explained how he consoled his LIV teammate Anirban Lahiri after he missed a short putt on Sunday that would’ve given him his first pro win since 2015. #LIVGolf #TheOpen
yeah I mean that was a we went from thinking we were going to win and celebrating Bon’s Victory um obviously I wanted to win and I didn’t play my best that final day and Bon was playing well and gave himself a great chance to finish it off and missing that putt was uh difficult for all of us to to see and feel and then going we had to go into a playoff and he had to go into a playoff too and it was quite an interesting Dynamic uh going from the super high emotion feeling like you’re going to win and then not having uh that that occur the only thing that I could say to him was that Bon you’ve improved so much as a player you’ve gotten better since being on Liv and the team that you have around you is here for you in full support um don’t let this Define you this should only be a springboard platform for you to just continue to grow uh we all have our Downs he’s seen my Downs I told him about my Downs Paul’s Downs um and uh Charles was unfort Al not there but John Catlin was there he’s been playing some great Golf and he shot in the 50s this year and so just having him there just talking about hey this is okay you’re playing the best golf of your career do not reminisce move forward was the best piece of advice that we could give him and uh just consoling him I mean it was we feel for him he’s he’s finished second numerous times just barely missed out on qualifying for this open um so it it was incredibly emotional for all of us and considering you know a few years years ago that we don’t have that opportunity it’s it’s awesome to be able to not only feed off your teammates but when you have those highs you’re also going to have lows and that was a low moment for all of us and we uh understand and realize that impact and how it affects us it doesn’t affect us in a negative way it affects us in a positive way realizing how much better those wins are going to be when when we do get those team victories or um when someone does win individually it it just means so much more and we’re playing for more than just ourselves now which is really cool and I think it’s an awesome aspect of it and um you there’s a time and place for it but uh last week was difficult for for Bon but he he’ll get through it and he’s a strong man and he’s a great family man um great father great husband and that’s what we kept uh assuring him on that everything’s going to be okay CU it was a big putt it was a big tough putt for him to to miss that
