Bryson DeChambeau is Drinking At Least Six Shakes Per Day in Addition to Feasting Like Babe Ruth

Bryson DeChambeau has been, on aggregate, the best player on the PGA Tour since it returned from a prolonged COVID absence. He's currently riding a streak of six straight Top-10 finishes dating back to mid-February. Much has been made of his remarkable physical transformation and it feels a bit superficial to keep focusing on it. Though, if it's helped his game this much, it feels like a victimless indulgence. Also, how in the world is a person supposed to simply breeze by a vivid description of his Babe Ruthian diet without commenting?

That's six to seven shakes per day! Long gone are the shake for breakfast, lunch, and a sensible dinner era. No, that was for weight loss. Bryson's is a mass-building endeavor the type only Mac from Always Sunny can truly appreciate.

Now, jokes aside, some of this hits a little close to home. I've been known to enjoy some cookies "here and there" and can turn "snacking" into a six-hour marathon where multiple tortilla chip and Animal Cracker bags see use. Not proud of it, but part of who I am.

But the common theme from sun-up to sun-down is the shakes. So many shakes. Glass after glass of heavy, protein-packed sludge. Even Mike Tannebaum is jealous.

DeChambeau is going to emerge from this pushing three bills and pushing his insides to their damn limit. He -- and his digestive system alike -- may be a champion when all is said and done. What a treat it is to see an athlete push himself one container of whey protein at a time toward the finish line.
