Bryson DeChambeau has become one of the latest golf superstars to turn their backs on the PGA Tour and switch to the controversial Saudi-backed LIV Golf series.

Ahead of the second round of the new series at Pumpkin Ridge in Portland from June 30, DeChambeau has joined along with Patrick Reed and Rickie Fowler - and the American is getting well compensated for it. DeChambeau, the 2020 US Open champion and an eight-time career winner on the PGA Tour, insisted the move to LIV Golf was ‘a business decision, first and foremost’ regardless of the threat of being suspended from his former tour.

On Monday, DeChambeau said: “There was a lot of financials to it and a lot of time. I get to have a life outside of the game of golf as well.”

The 28-year-old was reportedly offered a guaranteed $100 million - approximately £83 million - to join the LIV Golf series which is fronted by Greg Norman. DeChambeau suggested the move was ’a business decision for my family’s future’ and he intends to play the final seven LIV Golf events in 2022.

Given his high-profile status in golf as one of the longest drivers in the sport, DeChambeau has a long list of sponsors and companies he is affiliated with. He uses almost a full set of Cobra clubs at the moment and has done since he signed the multi-year deal back in 2016.

His only non-Cobra clubs are his wedges and putter which are made by Artisan Golf, and Sik Golf respectively while he also uses Bridgestone golf balls alongside Tiger Woods. DeChambeau also has deals
