Bryson DeChambeau claims he 'personally knows' the PGA Tour will reverse its indefinite ban on players joining the controversial Saudi-back LIV Golf series - and believes a resolution will be found 'pretty shortly'.
Speaking to Tucker Carlson on Fox News, 'The Scientist' gave a confident response when asked if he was worried about his life ban from the PGA Tour after turning his back to cash in on the Saudi millions - $125m, to be exact.

'First and foremost, it is a lot of opportunity to do something different in the game of golf,' the 28-year-old said. 'I've always been a bit of a trendsetter. Growing up I always thought I'd do something cool in the game of golf.
