DeChambeau Denies Dispute with McIlroy After Masters

Following Rory McIlroy's victory at the Masters, speculation arose regarding possible tension between McIlroy and Bryson DeChambeau after DeChambeau noted that McIlroy 'didn't talk to him once' during the final round. DeChambeau has since clarified that McIlroy's silence was not a personal slight but rather a reflection of his focused, stoic approach during high-stakes competition, drawing parallels to Tiger Woods' behavior in similar situations. McIlroy's psychologist also confirmed that the lack of interaction was part of a deliberate strategy to minimize distractions and maintain focus on McIlroy's own game. Both players and those around them emphasized that there is no animosity, with DeChambeau expressing admiration for McIlroy's achievement in completing his career Grand Slam. The incident underscores the intensity and psychological strategies often employed in professional golf's most pressured moments. Ultimately, DeChambeau congratulated McIlroy and praised his performance, putting to rest rumors of any 'beef' between the two.
