Just say you did it

Bryson DeChambeau spoke with media ahead of LIV Golf Korea with a new look, and he was once again bullish on where he sees the future of the league with the business plan they are taking to investors. In particular, the team golf aspect and the global schedule. This week marks the 8th different country they have visited in the 8 events they’ve held so far and Bryson was asked about his experience of travelling the world: “I think as I look at it now, what's really impacted me the most is the cultural barriers that get broken down, in a good way, with the game of golf. Everybody comes together. I think that's what's really special about LIV. I think that's what's really special about the game of golf. We'd be doing ourselves a disservice if we didn't continue to do that. “I think there's value in the States. There's value outside of the States. There's a way to match both.” He then was asked about his reaction to the news that the PIF was pulling the funding and the opportunity it offers: “We were surprised that they pulled out as quickly as they did. We didn't really see that coming. But that's okay. One door closes, another opens. I think that's the way a lot of us are looking at it. I think we all have optimism that there is a business plan that makes sense for team golf. I'd quite honestly actually -- how do I say it? I'm very optimistic with the business plan of team golf compared to other models, in my opinion. “But again, other models have worked, as well, so I'm not going to say that one is better than the other, but I do see value in what team golf can provide not only worldwide but also in grass rooting the game of golf. National support, team national support, city local support, we grass root ourselves there. There's a couple ideas that we have -- quite a few ideas that we have that could be interesting. “We'll see if investors like it or not. I'm giving all I can to make it happen, and if it doesn't, it doesn't happen.” And finally he was asked how he is able to overcome the noise off the course and concentrate on his own game during tournament weeks: “I go out there on the first tee on Thursday and hit a beautiful drive down the middle of the fairway, hopefully. That's what we're focused on. In the background, yeah, we're trying to help where we can, but ultimately it's up to executives and everybody banding together. If we all band together, there's an opportunity here. If not, it's going to be a different day for all of us. “But for me, how I support, go out and hit a great drive on the first tee, play a great round of golf, sign autographs after and have a good time.” Bryson is more involved now than he has ever been in shaping the future of the LIV Golf League. With the PIF pulling the funding and withdrawing the blank cheques, they have a big task ahead of them. But if one of their greatest assets is fully on board with trying to fund a practical solution, that can only be a positive for everyone involved. @brysondech @livgolf_league
