DeChambeau carded a closing 67 to finish six under par at Winged Foot, a record winning score by two shots at a revered venue where only two players had finished in red figures in five previous US Opens.<\/p>\n
The 27-year-old was the only player to break par on a demanding final day and the only one not to shoot over par in any round.<\/p>\n
He finished six shots clear of compatriot Matthew Wolff, who began the day with a two-stroke advantage but faded to a closing 75.<\/p>\n
Former Open champion Louis Oosthuizen was two shots further back in third, with Harris English recovering from losing a ball from his opening shot of the day to finish another stroke back in fourth.<\/p>\n
DeChambeau\u2019s physical transformation has been the main talking point since golf\u2019s return to action following the coronavirus shutdown, the American putting on 20lbs of muscle to become one of the game\u2019s biggest hitters.<\/p>\n
