COLLEGE GROVE, Tenn. (AP) — Bryson DeChambeau couldn't play at the Tokyo Olympics because of COVID-19. His decision to sign with LIV Golf is keeping him out of the Paris Games this summer.
So the two-time U.S. Open champion is pinning his hopes on Los Angeles in 2028.
“I’ve done my best up until now to give myself a chance according to the (world ranking), but I realize and respect where the current situation of the game is, albeit it’s frustrating and disappointing,” DeChambeau said Wednesday with the U.S. Open trophy beside him.
"Hopefully 2028 will be a little different situation, and it will make it that much sweeter.”
