Bryson DeChambeau was one of the biggest stars from LIV Golf to enter the 2023 PGA Championship. His current season was not going at the level everyone would have expected. The 29-year-old’s performance at the Masters and the LIV events that preceded it were not ones to remember! However, following his best finish of the season, 7th, that came at LIV’s Tulsa event, just before the second major of the year, the American’s return to the PGA Championship was highly anticipated.

At Oak Hill, the World No. 90 showcased some of his best golf skills, finishing tied for fourth place, earning himself a huge lump sum of money as well as every LIV golfer’s coveted ranking points! And now, days after his splendid performance, he once again grabs the headlines, this time for his bold comments about none other than the OWGR and the Saudi-backed league’s players qualification to majors!

Bryson DeChambeau shares his bold views on the OWGR

The Saudi-funded league is now in Washington, DC, for their upcoming event. The players are at Trump National Golf Club for the 54-hole tournament from May 26–28, playing the practice rounds. And ahead of the event, DeChambeau is, of course, the talk of the town considering his current hot streak! And using that attention to point to LIV’s big issue, the one-time major winner recently opened up about a possible solution for the defectors’ qualification in major championships.

NUCLR GOLF recently took to Twitter and posted DeChambeau’s pre-event interview. In the sit-down, the American pro suggests a bold solution for the ease with which LIV players can qualify for majors. According to the 29-year-old, the solution would be to create an “exemption category” for them! He also chimed in about the OWGR and said, “We’ve gone so far down the list now that it’s really difficult to make us even relevant. And I think that was part of their play.”
