WATCH: Beast Mode! DeChambeau Pummels Drives On Augusta Range
Vijay Singh was looking on in amazement as Bryson DeChambeau went through a speed routine on Monday of Masters week.
DeChambeau, now the PGA Tour's longest hitter, appeared to activate 'beast mode' and pummel drive after drive as hard as he possibly could.

The Golfing Scientist recently told the BBC that he goes through 90-minute speed sessions of trying to hit his driver as far as he possibly can.

The World No.5 and reigning US Open champion enters the week as one of the tournament favourites.
