I'm not buying this. I wouldn't have recognized him if it weren't for the cap. You don't just bulk up like that. PGA has a PED problem and they really need to ramp up testing.

I had a sarcastic reply to this but I'll hold off because the bs belongs on the politics board. He's the #10 golfer in the world and he's pulled a Sammy Sosa-like transformation. I apologize for assuming that the people following the golf board would know the name without explanation.

so, i just went and had a cursory check on some pics of the dude. 20 lbs of muscle? so what? you don't think that's possible without PED's?

With all the other work they have to do on finesse without worry about wear on the joints and actually being able to play 4 rounds? I'm not buying it. I couldn't believe it was him when I saw the drive he hit. He sent it 350.

Assuming he put on the lbs during golf's "offseason", I dont think its out of the question. Assuming he had/has a decent personal trainer and a nutritionist, 20 lbs can be gained relatively quickly.

I don't have an opinion either way but if as you say there's a PED problem on tour, why is he so much longer than any other player? He fucking CARRIED 343 the other day!!! He would blow it over the green on the first hole of my club.

It's awful suspicious...90 days roughly to pack on 30 lbs of muscle...the PGAT has been gushing over his added length, but you know he will be asked for a sample at some point.

He basically went from a WR size to LB size in 3 mos.

With it being BD and he's already on the radar for some of his unusual concepts...if I had to bet money on it, I think he would come up clean, but just looking at the transformation in such a short time...I'm sure there are some whispers out on tour.

He's still pretty young so his joints can handle it, but it will be curious to see if this a long term thing or he will drop weight at some point...but at far as he's hitting it...and maintaining his finesse game...see if it pays off with a major.

How the fuck do you carry a ball 343?

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw what he was doing with his driver.

We'll see how it goes now that they're playing again. Yeah, you can put more weight on than is natural for you. The thing is keeping it on as the season progresses. 4 days if you make a cut + travel doesn't leave much time for weights.

That's true if you go at it like a mad man but let's see how it holds up. Weight put on that quick tends to come off just as quick (or transforms into something a little less appealing to the eyes).

Yep...I'm more interesting to see if he gets the Ws with this new body/power. He had some enormous drives yesterday but with 4 par 5 holes...you would think his par out there is 68.

3 shots back today...we shall see.

There is no denying that DeChambeau is on either steroids or HGH.

Well...now there is more reason to talk about BD...Wolfe gave up the goods but fought back late...he was overcome by DeChambeau's 65 on Sunday.

I said earlier...this track with 4 par 5 holes...par was 68 for Bryson...Sunday he only got 3 of the 4, but 65 was a big number.

Reminds me of when Tiger "bulked up due to a vigorous workout routine" in his prime.

The problem then as it is now....the PGA doesn't care because it is good for ratings.
