Bryson DeChambeau’s LIV Contract Is for More Money Than You Think

Must read

Bryson DeChambeau’s contract with LIV Golf is for at least $125 million and a major reason why the star bolted the PGA Tour. During a July 7, 2022 interview on the “Country Club Adjacent” podcast, DeChambeau revealed that the $125 million reported contract figure was a “little low.” The golfer declined to reveal the exact number but noted that the length of the deal was for four and a half years.

“I mean, for what’s reported, it’s somewhat close,” DeChambeau explained. “… It’s a four and a half year deal. I could definitely tell you that and a lot of it was up front, which is great. And then it all makes sense for the future as well.

“… Look, what’s cool about it though is that I’ve already put it in places that make sense. Whether it’s my foundation or real estate, being able to build a multi-sport complex or taking care of my family and taking care of what we have going on with our content creation with Regecy, numerous other other things, too.”
