So everyone has been following the golf world’s beloved Bryson DeChambeau in his rather interesting journey on Instagram. Thirteen days ago, he posted a 40-second video announcing his challenge to make a hole-in-one over his house, with a twist – he’d only get one ball on Day 1, two on Day 2, and so on. The challenge was simple yet intriguing, and it quickly caught the attention of golf enthusiasts and non-enthusiasts alike. As DeChambeau began his daily attempts, the anticipation grew, and the suspense was palpable. Would he make that elusive hole-in-one, or would the series continue to entertain us with his near-misses?

As the days went by, DeChambeau’s challenge became a viral sensation. He’s now 0-for-91 attempts and still going strong. His impressive skills and agonizingly close misses have kept fans on the edge of their seats. Comedian Bert Kreischer is among those hooked, jokingly commenting that he’s now rooting for DeChambeau to keep missing so the series doesn’t end. The series has garnered over 50 million views on Instagram, with millions more watching on TikTok, YouTube, and X. It’s clear that DeChambeau’s challenge has become a must-watch for golf enthusiasts and non-enthusiasts alike.

DeChambeau just posted a picture of this challenge on his story and wrote, “This challenge just became personal”, and that tells us all we need to know about how the golfer is approaching his defeats in the past few days. DeChambeau’s dedication to the challenge is admirable, and his willingness to share his journey with the world is a commitment to engaging with his fans. As the series continues, one can’t help but wonder what the future holds for DeChambeau.

This isn’t the first time the golfer has brought something fun for the fans to watch while they wait for the 2025 season to start. His Break 50 series on YouTube have been a huge success and the golfer belives that is one of the reason he was able to renew his connections with the fans after joining LIV Golf.

With over 600,000 subscribers and 66.5 million views, it was clear that fans loved watching him share his passion for golf. “The Break 50 series is a lot of fun. I love doing it. It’s a lot of fun. It’s a challenge that’s never been done nor accomplished without any strokes. So it just keeps my brain fresh and in an entertainment mode, and realizing what the game is all about, not just for myself and winning money or winning trophies but entertaining, as well”, he said earlier.  Looking back, DeChambeau said he felt exhilarated competing in the tournament. He’d had some amazing moments, including an eagle on the 18th hole. Whatever the outcome, DeChambeau was just grateful to have had the chance to do what he loved.
