Born on September 16, 1993, Bryson DeChambeau is a professional golfer from the US who competes in LIV Golf. The 2020 US Open is one of the many PGA Tour victories he has earned over his career.
DeChambeau won the US Amateur in the same year that he won the NCAA Division I title, making him just the fifth amateur in history to accomplish this feat.
Known for his analytical and scientific approaches to the game, DeChambeau has earned the title of “The Scientist”.
DeChambeau’s net worth is projected to be around US$14 million given his extensive list of sponsorship deals, career earnings on the PGA Tour, and his current role as captain of “The Crusher GC” in the Saudi-backed LIV Golf series.
