"I just have to accept it and move on."Lowry ultimately accepted the penalty to avoid being "slaughtered all over social media tonight for being a cheat."BRYSON'S BIG BOUNCE-BACKAfter a disastrous opening 78, Bryson DeChambeau staged a dramatic comeback with a brilliant 65 to make the cut on the number, fighting back from the brink of an early exit.After his first round, DeChambeau admitted his first thought was, "I want to go home."He credited his father's simple but powerful advice—"never give up"—for fueling his incredible turnaround.Quick HitsHøjgaard twins in contention • Cut line at +1 sends Koepka & Smith home • Pace of play a major talking point Hosted on Acast.
