He said his “low point “came before the WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational in early August just one week after Olympics.
He said, “Yeah, again, it goes back to that expectation level question that I had,” DeChambeau said. “It was changing my perspective on everything. Everything was so heightened with how far ahead — oh, he’s going to win every week. He’s going to do this or that or whatever. Sometimes the letdowns were super difficult.

He added, “I think that’s where things got to, and it’s just very disappointing for me to feel like I was just getting hammered all the time. I was just like, you know what, I don’t really need this anymore. This once great game that was giving me so much just turned quite a bit on me. I feel like it’s not worth it anymore. As time has gone on, that has changed. I have grown. I have learned the place that I’m in. Is it difficult and frustrating sometimes still? Absolutely, just like anything.”
