'I love it': DeChambeau welcomes European Tour’s crackdown on slow play

Bryson DeChambeau insists he welcomes the European Tour’s crackdown on slow play, which includes a significant change to the previously announced four-point plan at this week’s Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship.

Players will now be given an immediate one-shot penalty for exceeding the time limit – 50 seconds if first to play, 40 seconds thereafter – in a tournament, rather than for two such transgressions within a round.
