He recently joined LIV golf by signing a contract with them worth $125 million. He was a former PGA Tour member, but earlier this month, he expressed his thoughts about his former tour.

If we flip through the pages of history, LIV Golf player, Bryson, is a former US Open winner with a good handful of other tour titles under his name.

Bryson DeChambeau talks about the PGA tour rules

Presidents Cup 2022 is already on course, and Bryson is upset that he and his fellow LIV Golf players are not allowed to participate in the tour event. He believes that the PGA Tour is shooting itself in the foot by not letting the LIV Golf players play. Recently, the PGA Tour sent letters to all former members informing them that since they joined LIV Golf, they are no longer allowed to play in tour events and cannot renew their membership.

Bryson wants to be part of the PGA Tour events. He feels sad that the governing bodies are not letting talented players play. They are not even qualified anymore. He said, “I want to play in numerous events on the PGA Tour. It would be awesome.”

LIV Golf has no such limits for the players. They are allowed to play the tour events of both LIV Golf and the PGA Tour. DeChambeau appreciates this step by LIV.

Bryson has always considered himself a fan of golf foremost; his talent for golf comes second. He stated that no matter what, he would always watch the game. And he’ll watch it with his talented fellow players, as they couldn’t be part of the tour events because of the PGA Tour’s new rules.

The pro golfer believes this will become something more extraordinary down the road than it is now. Talking about the future, he said he’ll keep watching the matches, even the ones where he won.
