Bryson DeChambeau is in the spotlight once again at the 2025 Masters Tournament. The mad scientist is set to tee off in the final round with Rory McIlroy as his partner. The two are sitting clear at the top of the leaderboard, at least 2 strokes from the entire field. DeChambeau and McIlroy will also be the last group to tee off on Sunday. Their contest is bound to be one for the ages. Many are getting Pinehurst flashbacks when the Irishman fumbled in the 2024 U.S. Open to gift the LIV Golf pro his second win in the major. While he has remained consistent in his pursuit to win more majors, has his love life also remained intact since then?

Reports came in during the 2024 Masters Tournament suggesting that Bryson DeChambeau is dating a familiar face. Well, only the face bit is familiar as the person in question looks identical to golf’s favorite diva, Paige Spiranac. Let’s learn more about the Crushers GC captain’s partner other than the one he is teeing off with for the fourth round of the Green Jacket event this year.

Who is Bryson DeChambeau’s rumored girlfriend Lilia Schneider?

Lilia Schneider and Bryson DeChambeau were rumored to be dating after Schneider was seen with him at the LIV Golf Invitational in Chicago in September 2022. Schneider gained notoriety after the news of their relationship with DeChambeau went public, as many fans and media sources were curious to find out more about this possible new couple. It has been a year since the news broke out, and the rumors are still flying strong. This might be the case of DeChambeau being in the spotlight again during his heated play in the 2025 Masters Tournament.

Within this period, Spiranac’s lookalike has been taking strides in the social spectrum. Ever since the rumors began, Schneider has gained fame on Instagram and has accumulated nearly 56k fans. She has also been posting updates about her life a little more frequently. She is now a senior at Marian University and also plays golf as an amateur. Schneider’s efforts representing her university in the sport have helped her win the NAIA Daktronics Scholar-Athlete awards in 2023 and 2024. However, according to her college profile, a season-long injury kept her out of action most of last year.

Despite the injury, Schneider hasn’t stayed away from social media. In her final year at Marian University, Schneider might be bracing herself for much more attention on Instagram this year if Bryson DeChambeau manages to pull off the win at Augusta National in the next few hours.

Bryson DeChambeau’s Ex-Girlfriend Hunter Nugent Confirms Their Split

Before the fans ever heard of Lilia Schneider, there was another name that was often aligned with Bryson DeChambeau. That was of his former girlfriend, Hunter Nugent. It seems that DeChambeau has a type, as Nugent is also a collegiate golf player. She is also active on social media, with Instagram and TikTok being her preferred choices of apps. However, we wonder if she is still as much in favor of using TikTok, considering how restricted it has been in 2025. In fact, back on January 19, 2025, when the popular social media app was banned in the USA, Paige Spiranac admitted how she nearly lost $100,000.

Anyway, the two had split up back in 2022. Confirming their dating rumors and their split, Nugent had stated “Bryson and I aren’t dating anymore,” in a conversation on Outkick via Instagram. Interestingly, she had also briefly mentioned Lilia Schneider during that episode. That is probably where the rumors began. Kind of a passing of the torch moment like in the Olympics.
