 The captain of LIV Golf’s Crushers GC, Bryson DeChambeau [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/bryson-dechambeau/], is in the headline for all the wrong reasons. Earlier, he was the talk of the town after he suddenly switched to TaylorMade driver from Cobra. And now, he has become a hot topic of discussion because of his golf career and ranking. He had a rough start in 2023, as he missed the cut at the Saudi International last week. But now the former PGA Tour player has fallen to the lowest spot in his career for the first time in five years.

But things changed. He has experienced a significant fall in his career for the first time in years. The golfer’s current OWGR ranking is 102. Although it was an enormous shock, somewhere everyone saw it coming.

And since then, Asian Tour’s Saudi International is the only event he has played that is OWGR-sanctioned.

After his two-win campaign in 2020-2021, he was often injured, making it hard for him to win or make cuts. HOW DID THE GOLF WORLD REACT TO THE NEWS?
