Height, Weight & Measurements
Bryson DeChambeau stands at 6 feet 1 inch tall (185 cm) and his weight is variously reported as between 235 and 240 pounds (about 107–109 kg). His physical transformation and power-hitting have been key talking points in his career, especially after he became the longest driver on the PGA Tour in 2020.
Beginning in late 2019, DeChambeau set out to add muscle mass in order to increase his swing speed and hit the ball farther. He added 20 pounds before the tour's break due to the COVID-19 pandemic and another 20 during the break. When the tour resumed, he quickly moved to the lead in driving distance. On July 5, 2020, DeChambeau won the Rocket Mortgage Classic in Detroit, Michigan, by three strokes over Matthew Wolff. In the final round, DeChambeau shot a 7-under 65 at Detroit Golf Club, birdieing four of the first seven holes and closing with three consecutive birdies. He finished at a career-best 23-under 265. DeChambeau came into the week with six straight top-eight finishes and was the only player with top-10s in the first three events after the restart from the coronavirus.

DeChambeau's father Jon was diagnosed with diabetes in the early 1990s, and suffered kidney failure due to the disease in 2014. Through Bryson's victory at the U.S. Amateur in 2015, Jon reconnected with a high school friend, Ron Bankofier, who donated a kidney to him in 2017. Jon was able to witness Bryson's first win on the PGA Tour a few months later, and his victory at the U.S. Open in 2020. Jon continued to struggle with diabetes after the kidney transplant, and died in November 2022, aged 63.
In December 2017, DeChambeau played a round of golf alongside U.S. President Donald Trump, senator David Perdue, and former professional golfer Dana Quigley. DeChambeau had also gifted Trump a set of golf clubs that year valued at $750. DeChambeau said in a 2020 interview, "I am extremely honored to represent Trump Golf and have the relationship with the Trump Organization that I have. From Larry Glick, to Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., the entire team is always behind me 100%, and I am grateful for their support".

Education
Bryson DeChambeau attended Southern Methodist University (SMU) in Dallas, where he studied physics. His academic background in physics has influenced his scientific approach to golf, including his use of single-length irons and in-depth analysis of swing mechanics. He credits Homer Kelly’s book, The Golfing Machine, as a major influence on his swing philosophy. After turning professional in 2016, he has continued to apply his analytical mindset to his game.
He moved to Clovis, east of Fresno, at age seven. He attended Clovis East High School and won the California State Junior Championship at age 16 in 2010. He graduated in 2012 and accepted a scholarship to Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, majoring in physics. DeChambeau wore an anachronistic flat cap while on the golf course due to his admiration for Ben Hogan and fellow SMU alumnus Payne Stewart.
