Bryson DeChambeau shoots 67 at Open Championship

Bryson DeChambeau carded a five-under 67 on Thursday at the 154th Open Championship. The round placed him two shots behind Jackson Suber, who leads after an inward nine of 31. DeChambeau declined to speak with assembled media after the round.

Faldo comments Nick Faldo said before the tournament that DeChambeau has "zero clue of strategy." DeChambeau later said, "I think you've got to be a lot more strategic out on the golf course." Faldo stated from the television booth that he had "rattled the cage" of DeChambeau.

Other scores Tyrrell Hatton, who played alongside DeChambeau, signed for a 69.

Hatton said DeChambeau "is an amazing player" and that his performance "shouldn't surprise anyone." Rory McIlroy finished at two over after early putting difficulties. Scottie Scheffler reached four under after six holes before ending at two under. Justin Rose posted a 75 that included a double bogey at the 11th hole.
