The Crushers GC captain, who won the US Open and finished second at the PGA Championship, is preparing for the LIV Golf United Kingdom event at JCB Golf and Country Club in Rocester, England.
"Playing more of American-style golf, even at Augusta (where he finished T6 this year), I've played there enough, and I know how to play those types of golf courses for the most part. Always can get better in small areas," he said.
"But The Open Championship has always been kind of a different one for me. I have played well in sunny, dry, normal conditions there, but when it gets really wet and windy and nasty, I've always struggled."
DeChambeau shot 76, 75 at Royal Troon to finish at 9-over par. His best finish at The Open was joint eighth in 2022.
"Last week just felt like I broke the seal a bit in that second round," he said. "Even though I didn't play that great, I felt like I could control the golf ball for the first time in those types of conditions, and that was a huge moment for me."
With the grand slam season over, DeChambeau returns his focus to the LIV circuit, where his best individual finish this year was an equal third at Nashville last month.
DeChambeau, 30, enters the UK event ranked ninth in the individual standings, but his Crushers GC team hold a sizeable lead over Legion XIII in the team competition. He is playing with England's Paul Casey, India's Anirban Lahiri and John Catlin, who has been filling in for the injured Charles Howell III.
DeChambeau also addressed two other talking points: Tiger Woods' majors future and playing golf with Donald Trump.
On Woods, he said: "He is the most influential figure in the game of golf right now, and I think he deserves to play in the majors. He's done more than enough for this great game, and he continues to give back by playing in these tournaments and trying to win. He wants to win. He's a competitor.
A video of DeChambeau playing golf with former US president Trump has gone viral.
He said: "It's an honour to play with anybody of that type of influence, no matter who it is on any political side. Whether it's (former president Barack) Obama or anyone else on that side, I'm more than willing to play with them,"
