Is the game of golf unfair? It’s a question that would indubitably prompt a variety of responses from various golfers. Although Bryson DeChambeau doesn’t explicitly think that the sport is so, he does feel that there should be a change to the gentleman’s game. Well, even Paige Spiranac was quick to agree!

Bryson DeChambeau wants a rule change?

A follower decided to ask a query during a collaboration that the ‘Scientist’ was spotted doing with the 2022 Maxim Sexiest Woman on the golf course. They went ahead to ask, “If you could add or remove one rule from golf, what would it be?” The diva then directed at the LIV Golf pro who was driving the ball.

The male athlete was quick to answer the question. He responded that, if given the chance, he would “add the rule that you can take a relief out of a fairway divot.” The model was elated, to say the least, as she replied in gratitude, “Thank you.”

Moreover, it seemed even the glam queen wanted it to happen, as she even agreed to the 2020 U.S. Open champ’s suggestion when he pointed out how “that’d be the best,” while alluding to the rule change. However, as per the regulations set by R&A and the USGA, allowing “free relief” from a hole made by another athlete’s golf club on the fairway is “not aligned with the central principle of playing the course as you find it and the ball as it lies.”

Although the two have been known for their online tussle then and now, they did decide to let bygones be bygones as the two engaged in a new collab. Well, she had even once criticized the golfer for his ‘rudeness’.
