As reported earlier by Golfweek, Bryson DeChambeau has joined LIV Golf, a move that was made official on Friday when the organization sent out a release.
“Bryson DeChambeau is an exciting addition to LIV Golf’s supercharged style of play. He is passionate about the sport, innovative in his approach and committed to pushing the boundaries in pursuit of excellence,” said Greg Norman, LIV Golf CEO and Commissioner. “He’s not afraid to think outside the box and supports our mission of doing things differently to grow our game. The power and energy he brings to the course will deliver added electricity to our competition in Portland and beyond.”
On Wednesday, Golfweek reported that DeChambeau, the 2020 U.S. Open champion, agreed to play in the next LIV Golf Series event in North Plains, Oregon, at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club scheduled for July 1-3. The first of eight events began Thursday at the Centurion Club outside of London.
