CHICAGO: Bryson DeChambeau drained a 14-foot birdie putt at the 72nd hole on Sunday (Monday in Manila) as his storming back nine lifted him to a first US PGA Tour title at the John Deere Classic. “I don’t even know what it means right now,” said DeChambeau, who carded a final-round 65 for an 18-under par total of 266 at TPC Deere Run in Silvis, Illinois. DeChambeau was in the practice area, trying to stay warm for a possible playoff when Rodgers’ challenge ended. DeChambeau had endured a series of disappointing finishes this season, includuing a missed cut on six-over at the US Open last month. He eventually found himself chipping from the green to get over a bunker and missed an eight-footer to save par.
