Penny Saver

In 2016, I wrote an article about the “Masters” tournament and a young kid who just joined the rank-and- le of the PGA Tour. His name was…and still is, Bryson DeChambeau, although some might argue he is considering changing it because of what has happened to him since bolting the PGA Tour to sign on with LIV Golf, the new Saudi backed Professional Tour. Bryson became the darling of PGA Tour fans, including me, who couldn’t get enough of his theory about playing with irons that were all exactly the same length and grips that were “jumbo plus” size. We also watched him hit golf balls higher and farther than we had ever seen before. As you know, Cobra was the club manufacturer who bene ted most from signing him to a contract to play their clubs. Bryson certainly added credibility to their brand that resulted in increased sales. It was a match made in $$ heaven $$. Let’s fast forward to February 2023…

Adam Schupak, a wonderful golf writer for Golfweek and a guest contributor many times on my radio show, wrote an article about Bryson on February 9th that got my attention. In it, he informs us Bryson was in Arizona a few weeks ago, the same week of the Phoenix Open, according to “multiple sources”. Most of us were looking forward to watching Bryson play in the Phoenix Open but he has been banned from playing any events on the PGA Tour since he signed with LIV Golf. Well, if he wasn’t allowed to play in the Phoenix Open, what was he doing in Arizona? Schupak says he was at Ping Headquarters with his swing coach, Chris Como (aka…Tigers Coach) checking out Ping’s new clubs at their F.O. C. A. L. Lab (Fast. Optical. Capture. Analysis). Now everything makes sense because Chris is also a Ping Ambassador. Adam also informed us that Ping spokesperson, Pete Samuels con rmed the visit and said, “Chris o en brings his players into our Lab to analyze swing dynamics from a coaching standpoint. at was the primary reason for the visit, but Bryson did test Ping products as well”. So…..If Bryson is at Ping Headquarters,

Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation d/b/a National Grid

PURPOSE: how does Cobra feel about that, since they have been negotiating with him in good faith for at least 3 months? “Not good”, according to Schupak, who tells us Bryson has also been tinkering with Taylor Made clubs. It’s a mess folks! In fact it’s so bad, Ben Schomin, Cobra’s PGA Tour rep, who has been at Bryson’s beck and call and has bended over backward to accommodate his every request said recently, “It was an asinine statement, especially for a guy who is perceived to be all-knowing when it comes to science and physics”. Bryson told a reporter he, “needs a driver that can be hit anywhere and everywhere across the face and nd the fairway”. Schomin followed that be saying, “With increased speed, it demands increase precision. He thinks there is a magic bullet out there. He’s looking for a unicorn”.

I don’t have a clue which golf club manufacturer Bryson will sign with in 2023, but you can be sure of one thing, although all of them would like Bryson to play their brand, his value as a Golf Ambassador for a club manufacturer has been greatly reduced because of his recent public statements as well as his lack of exposure on TV because he le the PGA Tour.

If you were Taylor Made, Callaway, Titleist, Cobra or Ping, would you sign Bryson DeChambeau to a multi-year contract today? Not I…says the Pronoun. How about you?

Final thoughts….

Many thanks to Adam Schupak for his brilliant detective work to bring us the facts so we can make up our own minds about a uniquely talented professional golfer who is not as popular as he was just two years ago. Too bad!
