Explaining a golfer's big announcementfrom @shaneohgolfs

[01]

Overview

The creator reports on professional golfer Bryson DeChambeau's recent announcement. He starts by setting up the expectation that DeChambeau might be returning to the PGA Tour, then reveals the actual news: a $100,000 "Backyard Games" tournament featuring ten golf content creators. The creator breaks down the format, compares it to MrBeast's content style, introduces each of the ten participants with on-screen graphics, and concludes by discussing the implications for LIV Golf and asking viewers if they plan to watch the series.

  3. 3

  5. 5

Transcript

Bryson DeChambeau's breaking news is not what anybody expected. He's turning into better best. And if you're confused on what I'm talking about, Bryson posted on his Instagram yesterday that he had a big announcement today, teasing that he was coming home. And this is the announcement. Take a second and watch this. Welcome to backyard games, where over the next ten days, these 10 golfers will be competing in my backyard for the chance to play me for this $100,000. And if you wanna stay up to date on everything happening in the golf world, follow for more. No, yeah, he is not returning to the PGA Tier. Instead, he will be hosting a $100,000 backyard golf tournament with nine content creators and one civilian. Grant Horvat, Brad Dahlke, Chance Taylor, Better, who's the civilian and has been on a Bryson video before rank the comment section absolutely loved him, Wesley and George Bryan, Arlen, who is a new member of the good girl games, Sarah Winters, Martin Borgmeyer, and the man, the myth, the legend himself, Chazzy. And although Bryson's not returning to the PGA Tier rank the future of LIV Golf is still very, very, very, very unclear, this series should be pretty solid with all of the names involved. But I would love to know if this is something that you plan on watching.
