SOUTHPORT, England (AP) \u2014 Forever the showman, Bryson DeChambeau high-fived a line of spectators, accepted a request for a selfie with a kid and then stopped to fist-bump a fan after leaving the driving range for his third round at the British Open.<\/p>\n

Shouts of \u201cWe love you Bryson\u201d and \u201cGo Bryson\u201d followed him to the first tee, where fans cheered and whooped when he was introduced by the starter.<\/p>\n

If the American was concerned how he\u2019d be received at Royal Birkdale the day after his heated brush with officials and subsequent two-shot penalty \u2014 for inadvertently improving the path of his swing \u2014 that blew up the final major of the year, he needn\u2019t have worried.<\/p>\n

OK, there was the odd jibe from the deep galleries \u2014 \u201cWatch your step, Bryson\u201d was one of them \u2014 but DeChambeau enjoyed overwhelmingly positive support around the parched, sun-kissed links in his third-round 69 that left him four shots off the lead on Saturday.<\/p>\n

In fact, golf\u2019s big entertainer reveled in it.<\/p>\n

After hitting his tee shot at No. 1 left and onto trampled-down grass near spectators, DeChambeau flicked away a pine cone and remarked that it was a \u201cloose impediment\u201d \u2014 sparking some laughter.<\/p>\n

On the second hole, he appeared to have a wry smile on his face as he assessed how to get to his ball that was buried in thick grass to the back left of the green. Every movement and practice swing by DeChambeau was met with a \u201cooooooh\u201d by fans, clearly a nod to Friday and his heavily scrutinized actions in deep rough at the fifth hole that sparked the rules review.<\/p>\n

At the par-4 sixth hole, DeChambeau drew more laughter from spectators when he addressed his second shot by stretching out his legs in an exaggerated stance \u2014 similar to how he stood for the shot in question on Friday.<\/p>\n

Paul McGinley, an analyst on British broadcaster Sky Sports, predicted early Saturday that what happened to DeChambeau the previous would spur him on.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlaying with a chip on your shoulder can be a good thing,\u201d McGinley said.<\/p>\n

Similarly, Jon Rahm, a colleague of DeChambeau\u2019s at LIV Golf, used the American as an example of players who \u201cdo really well when they have, let\u2019s say, some extra going on off the course.\u201d<\/p>\n

Indeed, it seemed DeChambeau was treating Saturday\u2019s round as another chance to interact with fans, some of whom would likely have been among the nearly 2.8 million subscribers to his YouTube channel.<\/p>\n

He rarely missed a chance to high-five spectators who stuck their hands out as DeChambeau walked from greens to tees.<\/p>\n

Another fan shout came on the tee at the reachable par-4 ninth hole, imploring DeChambeau to use his driver. He obliged, slowly and theatrically removing the big stick from his bag, taking off the head cover to loud cheers and booming his drive 354 yards to the front of the green.<\/p>\n

\u201cPerformative\u201d was how Rory McIlroy described DeChambeau in a brutal post-round put-down on Saturday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think a lot of it is for attention,\u201d McIlroy said.<\/p>\n

DeChambeau has suggested the swelling popularity of his YouTube channel \u2014 where he has fun, comes up with some wacky ideas and shows the world a different side to him \u2014 is as important as the results he gets.<\/p>\n

Yet not much in golf beats lifting the claret jug.<\/p>\n

And he\u2019s still very much in contention, even if a bogey at No. 18 ruined a closing stretch where DeChambeau made gains with birdies at Nos. 15 and 17. He had been even par after 14 holes.<\/p>\n
