0-for-4 in Majors: Bryson DeChambeau's Disaster Streak Has the Golf World Talking

Alright, fellow 12s, even if your green and blue heart beats loudest for the Mariners crushing dingers at T-Mobile Park or Sam Darnold slinging TDs at Lumen Field, you gotta hear what just went down at the U.S. Open. Seriously, Shinnecock Hills threw us a massive curveball this Friday. Two of golf's biggest names, Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm, completely cratered! Both LIV Golf stars shockingly missed the cut, proving that even the best can melt under major pressure. It was a brutal day out there, and nobody saw this coming after their strong starts.

Bryson DeChambeau's Major Misery Continues

The struggle is real for Bryson DeChambeau right now, and it's getting harder to ignore. He came back at 6:35 a.m. ET to finish his first round, sitting at 1 under, only to immediately give one back on his final hole, the 9th, for an opening 70. But that was just the warm-up. His second round started with a gut punch: back-to-back double bogeys on the 3rd and 4th holes. Poof, his hopes for a third U.S. Open title vanished. He spent his Friday battling the cut line, much like at the Masters and the PGA Championship. DeChambeau couldn't build any momentum, shooting a 5-over 75. He snagged three birdies, sure, but each was sandwiched between a bogey or a double, making every step forward feel like two steps back. This is huge: for the third straight major, and the fourth in his last five starts, DeChambeau missed the cut. He's heading to Royal Birkdale staring down the risk of going 0-for-4 in making the weekend at a major in 2026. What is going on?!

Jon Rahm's Shocking Back Nine Ejection

DeChambeau wasn't alone in his frustration. His LIV cohort Jon Rahm was right there, but his collapse was arguably even more shocking. Remember that first round? Rahm was the only player to go bogey-free! He wrapped it up Friday morning with five straight pars to post a stellar 2-under 68. He didn't bogey his first hole until his 22nd of the tournament! Even after stumbling to a first nine 37 to make the turn at even par overall, nobody thought Rahm was in real danger of missing the cut. But then, disaster struck right in the middle of his back nine. You could feel the frustration building over missed putts and poorly executed shots. What followed was a meltdown: four bogeys and a double in a brutal five-hole stretch from No. 12 to No. 16. Rahm ejected not only out of contention, but completely outside the cut line. He simply could not get out of his own way on the back nine, and by the time he doubled the par-5 16th, his tournament was done. This is the same guy who bounced back from a rough Masters with a runner-up finish at the PGA! Talk about a brutal turn of events.

So, while DeChambeau and Rahm are packing their bags, probably rethinking everything, we've still got a U.S. Open weekend to watch. They'll both be looking ahead, maybe to Royal Birkdale for Bryson, trying to avoid that dreaded 0-for-4 in majors this year. For now, we'll keep cheering on our M's and Seahawks, but also keep an eye on who can actually finish a major strong. Let's see who's got the grit to hold it together at Shinnecock Hills!
