DeChambeau fights back, improves by 13 shots
Briefly

Bryson DeChambeau faced significant frustration after his first-round performance at the Open Championship, but he resolved to continue competing. Following an initial score of 78, he remarkably improved by 13 strokes with a 6-under 65. DeChambeau highlighted his ability to manage emotions and avoid destructive behavior. Despite the substantial score difference, he insisted that his performance remained consistent. Success came down to slightly better execution with wedges and putts, illustrating the randomness often seen in links golf.
I woke up this morning, and I said, 'You know what? I can't give up.' I was proud of the way I fought back.
I really persevered through some emotionally difficult moments. And to hold myself together and not get pissed and slam clubs... I'm very proud of myself.
I've played the same as I did yesterday. That's links golf for you. I executed pretty much the same shots as I did yesterday.
Today they just kind of went more my way. My wedges were just a fraction better, and that was really it.
