Report: Bryson DeChambeau eyes pre-Ryder Cup PGA Tour event

Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley wants his team to play together in a PGA Tour event before the United States hosts Team Europe at Bethpage Black Course in New York beginning Sept. 26.
And that includes Bryson DeChambeau, who has yet to clinch an automatic qualifier spot for the team but stands in great position to do so.
But there’s just one problem with DeChambeau joining the hoped-for Ryder Cup outing at the Procore Championship from Sept. 11-14 in Napa, Calif.
As a member of the LIV Golf circuit, DeChambeau is suspended from the PGA Tour. But he told Sports illustrated on Friday that he’d like to take part.
“That’s up to the Tour and their decision to make,” he said after his opening-round 67 at LIV Golf Indianapolis, where he is vying to lock up third place for the LIV season. “It’s on them if they don’t let us become together as a team and play.”
A PGA Tour spokesperson confirmed to Sports Illustrated that DeChambeau is not eligible to play.
DeChambeau’s agent, Brett Falkoff, told the publication that the player has not formally asked to play in a PGA Tour event but that he “plans to participate in every team gathering that he is permitted to attend.”
DeChambeau, 31, said LIV leadership would allow him to play at the Procore.
LIV Golf members who qualify for majors are allowed to play in those PGA Tour-sanctioned events. DeChambeau played in all four in 2025, missing the cut at the U.S. Open and finishing in the Top 10 in the other three: T5 at the Masters, T2 at the PGA and T10 at The Open Championship.
