Kraken down! Watch as Bryson DeChambeau snaps driver in two

"I guess it's all those swings I put in."

Bryson DeChambeau said it himself Thursday afternoon at the PGA Championship after his driver, his beloved Kraken, snapped into two pieces.

DeChambeau had just hit his drive on TPC Harding Park's seventh hole when he reached down to pick up his tee. As he did so, he used his driver as support. It didn't hold, breaking where the shaft meets the clubhead.

Apparently, those 140-plus mph swings and 40 extra pounds added in the past 10 months finally proved too much for poor ol' Kraken.

DeChambeau didn't fret, though.
