Bryson DeChambeau came to the 2024 PGA Championship hoping to improve upon his performance at the major in 2023. He finished fourth in the event after battling back from a hand injury that knocked him out of it in 2022, and it seemed like he was finally rounding back into solid form.
Fast forward to 2024 and DeChambeau entered the PGA Championship as a legitimate contender. The LIV Golf star showcased some of the power that once made him one fo the best players in the world, and it was expected he’d be able to shorten the course at Valhalla Golf Club.
DeChambeau did just that. He thrust himself into contention at the major and gave him a chance to add a PGA Championship to his career ledger.
Winning just one major has proven to be a roadblock for even some of the most prolific golfers of this era. DeChambeau has enjoyed his share of success in golf’s biggest events, but does he have a major championship to his name?
Here’s a look at DeChambeau’s history at major events and his PGA Championship track record.

Has Bryson DeChambeau won a major?
DeChambeau has won one major championship: the 2020 U.S. Open.
To this point, he’s come up short in the other three majors, though he’s finished in the top 10 at all of the others, the Masters (T6th in 2024), the PGA Championship (T4, 2020 and 2023) and The Open Championship (T8, 2022).
When was the last time Bryson DeChambeau won a major?
DeChambeau’s most recent and only major win came in the 2020 U.S. Open at Winged Foot.
DeChambeau entered the final round of the 2020 U.S. Open two strokes off the lead, but he shot a 67 on what was otherwise a challenging day on the course for the rest of the leaderboard. While the rest of the top six finishers at the event recorded at least five bogeys in the final round, DeChambeau only had one.
The 2020 U.S. Open was played in September due to the COVID-19 pandemic and had no fans, so DeChambeau is still seeking his first major victory in front of a crowd.
Here is a breakdown of DeChambeau’s rounds at the 2020 U.S. Open.
| Round | Score (to par) | Overall score (to par) |
| 1 | 69 (-1) | 69 (-1) |

Has Bryson DeChambeau won the PGA Championship?
DeChambeau has never won the PGA Championship. His best finish in the event also came in 2020 at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco, when he finished tied for fourth. The 2020 PGA Championship was golf’s first major after the start of the pandemic and was played without fans.
DeChambeau positioned himself as a contender by shooting a 66 in the third round in 2020, but a terrific final round by Collin Morikawa kept him three strokes off the lead when all was said and done.
DeChambeau matched his fourth-place tie at the 2023 PGA Championship at Oak Hill. He led the tournament after 18 holes, but several golfers — Scottie Scheffler, Corey Conners and Viktor Hovland — passed him during Round 2 of the tournament. He never managed to regain the lead but stayed in the top five as his rival Brooks Koepka won the event.
