6 years agoAfter four wins in 2018, which includes three victories in his past five events, Bryson DeChambeau enters 2019 as the hottest player on the planet. The American began the Sentry Tournament of Champions in 2018 as the 94th ranked player in the world but has risen to number five in the world rankings during the past year. DeChambeau is one of the most analytical players that the game has ever seen, and it will be interesting to see how he handles some of the recent rule changes. One of the most interesting new changes is rule 13.2a(2), which states "players will not be required to putt with the flagstick in the hole; rather, they will continue to have the choice to have it removed -- which includes having someone attend the flagstick and remove it after the ball is played." DeChambeau has already asserted that he will not be removing the flagstick this weekend on any putt over 10-feet, so it will be interesting to see how it affects the event.--Spencer Aguiar - RotoBaller
