DeChambeau will play on at the Open despite anger over two-stroke penalty

Bryson DeChambeau received a two-stroke penalty at the Open Championship at Royal Birkdale for improving the line of his swing in thick rough during his second round. The penalty, which prompted a furious response from the 32-year-old American, dropped him from second place — one stroke behind leader Lucas Herbert — into a tie for fifth. Despite uncertainty about his continued participation lasting until after midnight on Friday, DeChambeau confirmed he would play on over the weekend.
