Bryson DeChambeau admits slump after missing three straight major cuts in 2026

Bryson DeChambeau, the two‑time U.S. Open champion, revealed on his YouTube channel that he has missed the cut at three consecutive majors in 2026 – the Masters at Augusta, the PGA Championship at Aronimink, and the U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills. He opened the U.S. Open with an even‑par 70 but fell to a five‑over 75 in the second round, missing the cut by two strokes. DeChambeau said the decline stems from persistent swing issues and disclosed that he experimented with an AI assistant, Google Gemini, during a LIV Golf event to fine‑tune his mechanics.

The golfer, who previously won the U.S. Open in 2020 and 2024, hopes to rebound at the 2026 Open Championship at Royal Birkdale in England. He emphasized his commitment to rebuilding consistency and working harder than ever on his game.
