Lexi Thompson, Sergio Garcia, Kevin Na, Join Others in Mourning Bryson DeChambeau’s Devastating Loss

American professional golfer, Bryson DeChambeau, credits his father for introducing him to golf. If it wasn’t for him, the golf world wouldn’t have had a chance to watch ‘The Mad Scientist’ hit bombs. His father has been a great support system for the golfer throughout his career. However, he will no longer be there for his son to cheer him before an event. 

Jon DeChambeau, the father of the 29-year-old golfer, passed away at the age of 63. The 10-time champion shared the saddening news with the public through his social media profiles. Even though he explained how his father suffered a lot of pain in this life, the LIV Golf rebel hasn’t revealed the reason for his death. 

Notably, it is not a secret that Jon DeChambeau battled several health issues over the years. He had been a diabetic patient for more than 30 years. Moreover, he went through multiple surgeries, including a double bypass surgery and a kidney transplant. 

Although the golf world doesn’t know the reason for DeChambeau Sr.’s death, everyone knows he had suffered a lot from his medical problems. Therefore, when the golfer shared the news without citing the reason, nobody was hesitant to express their condolences to him.

DeChambeau‘s post reached almost everyone who loves golf in this world. After all, a professional player lost someone close to him, whom he considered one of his greatest inspirations. It also reached other pros, especially his LIV Golf Invitational Series colleagues. 

“So sorry to hear Bryson. My condolences to your family,” one of the first to join the new league and the Iron Head captain, Kevin Na, wrote. Ian Poulter and Louis Oosthuizen, captains of Majesticks and Stinger GC, respectively, also left their warm messages for the young golfer in his comments section. 

The Tour veteran-turned-LIV Golf player, Sergio Garcia, was also quick to send his condolences to DeChambeau. “Prayers to you and your family, Bryson,” his comment read. Eugenio Lopez-Chacarra and Peter Uihlein also were among the LIV rebels to comment on DeChambeau’s post.

Lexi Thompson and DeChambeau are known to be friends. In fact, she even joined him in the Bahamas as part of a golf event to raise money for his Foundation. As a friend, the world no. 7 wrote, “so sorry for your loss Bryson.” 

Coping with losing someone close, especially a father, is never easy. Even though professional golfers know the comments can’t heal DeChambeau’s wounds, they expressed their condolences to show their support towards the golfer.
