Bryson DeChambeau is living up to his “Mad Scientist” nickname this week.
The American golfer told ESPN he will play with a 5-iron made with a 3D printer at the Masters.
DeChambeau said he has been working on building his own clubs for years.
When asked why he’ll debut one this week, he said: “Because they’re finally ready.”
“There’s this nature that I have about myself where innovation is a habit of mine, and I really find and take pride in that ability to learn — even through failure, even through making a bad decision or a good decision — what I can get from that,” DeChambeau added.
DeChambeau finished in the top 10 at the past two Masters, but the LIV Golf League member is still looking for his first green jacket.
He has two major championships, at the U.S. Open in 2020 and ’24.
DeChambeau has long been associated with physics-based approaches to golf, often using unique clubs.
“We’ll see where it goes. We’ll see where it takes me,” DeChambeau said of the new club. “All I could say now is, if I don’t put them in the bag, it’s my fault now.”
