DeChambeau Takes First Two Playoff Events, Prepares From Coming Algorithmic Setback

The Reset Cup has long been a silly way to decide $10 million and will continue the silliness this year now that Bryson DeChambeau has won the first two legs of the playoffs. As Will Gray notes for GolfChannel.com, DeChambeau could WD from the BMW and still have the top seed heading to Atlanta. 

But not before the algorithms work their misery and chop back the excellence cushion he's built for the sake of one last confusing points battle until a new format is unveiled next year.  DeChambeau is taking the mathematic shenanigans in stride:

“Look, if a guy wins the first three playoff events, if that was ever to happen, you’re still not guaranteed to win the FedExCup,” he said. “So this week – it’s funny I say that – this week I’ve got to regroup, sit down, analyze what we could have done better out here and make those changes for next week so I can perform at a better level.”

Or, take the week off and not lose any advantage while catching up on your beloved sleep! Come on, you know you want to Bryson!

On a serious note, DeChambeau is a budding superstar and one of the game's elite players at 25, writes David Dusek for Golfweek. 

The highlights of a bittersweet day where TPC Boston says goodbye to annual hosting duties on Labor Day weekend, to be replaced by a biennial Northern Trust Open hosting in early August.
