Super happy for Bryson. He's such a great dude.

My Bryson story. I was heading into a restaurant here in Dallas as he was walking out. I said " Hey Bryson , big fan" He stopped and had a 15 minute conversation with me about Golf. He could have just said thanks but he made the effort for a fan and he seems to just get it.



Yep. He's a real one. He's just kinda nerdy and awkward.

I think the media saying Bryson has changed is crazy. He's the same bro dork he's always been. The crowd finally got behind him when he started playing well and the media had no choice but to get behind him as well.

Brysons channel is probably what turned many around on him

He practices at my range and films a lot of stuff there. He's always been incredibly nice, if a little full of himself. That being said, if you can back it up then more power to you. He'll always talk golf though. He absolutely loves the game and everything about it.

Can't be said enough but that was an absolute all time 4 to win. That second shot was much harder than it initially looked. Then the long bunker shot to follow. Just great

Don't like Bryaon at all. So fake.


I honestly don't know if he is or isn't.

I remember back in his SMU days he wasn't afraid to be himself with his Ben Hogan style and single length irons (before Cobra - the Edel days).

He's a highly technical and cerebral player which is the opposite of how I view the game. He'll experiment with any and every aspect of golf looking for an edge or ways to make it repeatable.

There are times when his personality seems quirky and contrived, but it may be similar to social awkwardness that a lot of great golfers in the past have had (Tiger, Hogan, etc.).

Guy is a physics major. I'm betting the list of outgoing physics major is pretty short while the list of quirky is a mile long.

Bryson being fake seems just completely off. Hate him for many different reasons but fake? He's probably been the most real and honest pro the last decade, often to his detriment when he says things at times when he should just keep quiet.

He's not my favorite by any means but I respect the hell out of him and he's a great character for golf, which golf needs more of.

He's exactly that dude. Just weird.

I'm a fan. Maybe I'm weird. Hell, we are all weird.

Winning a major on Fathers Day and dedicating it in his memory is so special.

Bro knew he would get cooked online for all his pro rory and anti media availability takes so he got out in front of it.

Maybe it's just the drastic personality change, but he bugs me.

Rory has been through a lot, this isn't going to help. I hope he's getting some help cause his head has to be straight ****ed at this point.

Great finish to the tournament.

I'm a little conflicted on new Bryson. On the one hand, it's great to have a connection and engagement with the crowd and audience, but it also feels a bit "produced" (I don't know that it actually is, though).


I think he is sincere, but just socially awkward.

I don't think he's awkward nor produced. To me he's a great golfer with intense knack for minute details to his game and equipment. Pretty normal to me. Not sure of peoples comment of him being on a spectrum? Central Valley CA kid living his dream life Can't be happier he won.

He already pees himself if you whisper Butler's Cabin.
