McEvoy secured his first European title at the 285th attempt following a victory on the Challenger Tour in France the previous week.
Dechambeau was criticised for offering only a token handshake to the unheralded Englishman following the biggest win of his career, leading to the world number 23 expressing his regret for reacting in such a manner after a difficult day out on the course.
"Tough finish at the @peo_18, but overall I had a great week in Hamburg. Thank you to Porsche European Open for having me." he posted on Instagram.
"A terrific golf course with great support from the fans. I apologize to Richard McEvoy and the fans for my brevity on 18.
