But who is Kelly Slater? The American legend is a professional surfer and is regarded as one of the best ever to grace the unique sport. He has conquered the World Surf League, a premiere surfing event, a record eleven times.

Additionally, the 50-year-old is also an avid golfer himself. Slater has been featured on the PGA Tour’s YouTube channel, most notably during the surfer’s stint at the AT&T Pebble Beach seven years ago.

But why is DeChambeau sweating it off at the gym?

Isn’t it the holiday season? The 2020 U.S. Open winner has just come off a challenging inaugural LIV Golf season, where controversy never stopped following him. It was a mentally exhausting year for him, with lawsuits and greed claims chasing him throughout.

On the professional front, DeChambeau was a pale shadow of himself. Captaining the Crushers GC side, Bryson never finished in the top 10 at any competition. His best rank was a 14th-place finish at the LIV Bangkok event.

But DeChambeau wasn’t ignorant of his shortcomings. If anything, he’s been forthcoming about his performance this season, with a view to making things better in 2023. In a recent chat after the end of the season, DeChambeau also spoke about how he ‘had his C game’ out on the course this season.

But he has begun his gruelling journey back to the top of his game. If his latest post is anything to go by, we could be heading into an exciting season with DeChambeau.
