As Andrew Chandler, a former English professional golfer, declared Bryson DeChambeau a blue-collar hero, the golf world couldn't help but nod in agreement. But what's behind this sudden praise for DeChambeau? Is it just his impressive US Open win, or is there more to it? According to Chandler, DeChambeau's makeover, both on and off the course, has contributed to his growing popularity.

DeChambeau's transformation is nothing short of remarkable. Gone are the days of his flashy outfits and eccentric behavior. Today, he's a more polished, focused, and humble golfer. So, what's changed? Has DeChambeau finally found his footing, or has he simply adapted to the changing landscape of professional golf?

As Chandler pointed out, DeChambeau's growth in the game is reminiscent of Arnold Palmer's. Both golfers share a similar outlook on the game, and both are "unbelievably good for the game." But what about Rory McIlroy, who's been the target of Chandler's criticism? Why has he failed to impress, while DeChambeau is basking in the glory of his newfound success?

Perhaps, as Chandler hinted, McIlroy's lack of focus and "messy lifestyle" have hindered his progress. Or maybe it's simply a matter of adapting to the changing times, as DeChambeau has done. Whatever the reason, one thing is clear: DeChambeau's newfound popularity is no fluke. He's earned it, and the golf world is taking notice.
