‘He Cares’: Bryson DeChambeau Praises Greg Norman’s Efforts as Jay Monahan Remains a No-Show Post Honorary Starter

Greg Norman and Jay Monahan represent two different ends of the golf world. While these tethered ends desperately hope for reunification in the form of the $3 billion PGA Tour-PIF merger, they remain submerged in their distinct realities. Norman, for one, is making active attempts to win the hearts of his men, while Monahan is still hoping to make a brainy move to fix it all.

This was also evident on Day 1 of the ongoing Masters’ Tournament, when the 69-year-old gave his best to be present for all 13 of his camp members who were able to grab hold of an invite. Bryson DeChambeau, the current top of the Masters’ leaderboard, acknowledged his Bossman’s efforts of moving from Pampas all the way to Holly just to support his men and “took it as a sign that he cares”.

During the interview, the nine-time PGA Tour winner said, “It shows he [Greg Norman] cares. Look I’ve not had any poor interactions with him my entire career… He was great to me through LIV, and I respect him coming out here and showing support…I just look at it like he cares.”

But was Jay Monahan present to support his PGA Tour men from hole to hole to make them feel the same way DeChambeau did? Sadly, that was not the case. While he was present at the Honorary Starter ceremony, he did not seem to accompany the PGA Tour majority field from hole to hole like LIV Golf’s mastermind.

In an environment where PGA Tour players are rampantly losing trust and defecting to LIV Golf, some suggest that it has become necessary for Monahan to change his ways, and compensate for the years lost. One of the most outspoken critics of the PGA Tour Commissioner is the seven-time PGA Tour winner Xander Schauffele, who candidly spoke about how he has lost trust in the 53-year-old following the merger announcement.

Even though Monahan believes he is the “right person” to lead the PGA Tour. In Schauffele’s books Monahan still has a long way to go to gain back his trust. The 30-year-old back in November stated, “I wouldn’t mind seeing some new leadership take place on our circuit.” However, recently many golfers have come forward and voiced their opinion for the unification of the sport. So now the question arises: If given a chance, would Bryson DeChambeau want reinstatement?

The questions about the return of LIV Golfers back to the PGA Tour world have surfaced time and again over the past few weeks. Bryson DeChambeau has recently joined Jon Rahm’s perspective and welcomed such reunification without penance.

In fact, the idea of a world tour that has flexible feeder Tours seems to work in his direction. He said, “Look, I would love to continue to showcase my skill set around the world in different places, whether it be Shriners or the Arnold Palmer, Mr. Nicklaus’ event, TPC Las Vegas. I’d love to play those events. They’ve been great to me. ”

While DeChambeau continues to top the golf world charts, the love and care offered by Norman is an indistinguishable cherry on top.
