Bryson DeChambeau reportedly worked with a dietician to 'measure his chew rate'

• Bryson DeChambeau analyzes everything on the golf course.
• According to Sean Zak at Golf.com, DeChambeau has even worked on his "chew rate" while eating.
• If there is an edge to be gained, DeChambeau will find it.

Bryson DeChambeau is always looking for an edge.

Whether it's bulking up on seven protein shakes a day to become the longest hitter in golf, or teasing alternative lines to take and forcing the PGA to change their rules, DeChambeau has shown time and time again he's willing to think different in order to improve his game.

So far, the strategy has paid off in dividends, with DeChambeau winning the U.S. Open last year and just last weekend picking up his first win of 2021 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

Playing at The Players this weekend, DeChambeau got off to another strong start, but has looked slightly slimmer than his peak thickness in late 2020, as noted by Golf Digest's Daniel Rapaport on Twitter. In response, Golf.com's Sean Zak revealed yet another edge DeChambeau has been chasing: a better chew.

According to Zak, DeChambeau has been working to measure his "Chew Rate."

While it's unclear what advantage an analysis of DeChambeau's chew rate might yield, after his recent string of performances, there's little reason to doubt him.
