Bryson DeChambeau diskuterar kritik och LIV Golfs framtid

Bryson DeChambeau bemötte nyligen framförd kritik och LIV Golfs jakt på investerare under en presskonferens inför LIV Golf Korea i Busan, Sydkorea. Den tvåfaldige majorvinnaren uttryckte optimism kring ligans lagformat trots utmaningarna med finansiering.

DeChambeau, som talade på måndagen, sade att han blev överraskad av Public Investment Funds beslut att dra in framtida finansiering till LIV Golf. Han tillade att han förblir optimistisk gällande den affärsmässiga potentialen i lagbaserad golf och dess förmåga att växa sporten på lokal nivå världen över. ”Vi blev överraskade över att [PIF] drog sig ur så snabbt som de gjorde. Vi såg det egentligen inte komma”, sade han. ”Men det är okej. När en dörr stängs, öppnas en annan.”
