Bryson DeChambeau continues to show his value, even when it’s clearly not his week. After doing some, uhh, redesign work on a bunker, on Friday, DeChambeau held it together to finish T15 and card four rounds of par or better (70-68-69-71).

That was remarkably his 11th straight top-20 dating to the PGA Championship. Four of those 11 are wins and two more are top-10s.

“Every week I feel like I have a chance now, that’s the nice part about it,” DeChambeau said prior to the Genesis Open. “It’s not overconfidence, it’s just the process we go through and the work that we put in every week, and the consistency and repeatability that I usually have. It’s not every week that it happens, but that’s what kind of goes with the game, it ebbs and flows.”

The 25-year-old has a healthy strokes gained profile through 16 rounds on Tour this season. DeChambeau is fourth in overall SG including sixth in tee to green. His short game has jumped from 106th around the green in 2016-17 to 78th last season and now 41st. DeChambeau is also second in par-5 scoring and seventh in bounce back percentage, which belies the occasional temper we see.
