The latest rumored amount Bryson has been offered to join the Saudi Golf League is mind-boggling
If you thought the Saudi Arabia ‘thing’ was getting silly, wait until you read this tweet.
According to Peter Finch, he of 215k followers on Instagram and 79k on Twitter, Bryson DeChambeau has been offered circa $240 million to appear as the poster boy of the Super Golf League.
Update on this, sources on the ground here in ?? are saying the figure is closer to $240,000,000……yes you read that correctly https://t.co/paFV5GXGRF

Posting as @PeterFinchGolf, the influential social media and YouTube guru was at last week’s Phoenix Open when the speculation broke, the latest offer putting last month’s reported $135 million into the realms of insignificance, an offer that Bryson, now rightly, called ‘wrong’ but perhaps in not the way we originally thought.
There is still plenty of time for the SGL to sign players on to the tour, and a trio of previously loyal European Ryder Cup stars have already confirmed they have been approached with offers.
Ryder Cup hero, Ian Poulter, is reported to be considering an offer of around $30 million, whilst Lee Westwood, who politely declined speculation of becoming the next European captain has signed a non-disclosure agreement with LGI.
Meanwhile, Henrik Stenson, the new favorite to become team leader in Rome 2023 faces a choice between that considerable honor or the riches of the new contract.

‘You’re f***ing hilarious, aren’t you?’ – Shane Lowry snaps at spectator during WGC Match Play
It’s been a struggle for Shane Lowry throughout his career at the WGC Dell Technologies Match Play. Since 2019, the Irishman is now 3-6 at the event prior to the 2023 version of the event.
The struggles continued on Wednesday for Lowry as he found himself two down to Taylor Montgomery on the 17th hole when a fan said something to him after his tee shot.
The frustration finally showed through and Lowry snapped back at the fan.
“You’re f***ing hilarious ,aren’t you?”

Lowry will give it another crack tomorrow as he faces off against Mackenzie Hughes on Thursday at 11:59 A.M. EDT.

However, the post didn’t go as planned, with some users comparing Korda to Rickie Fowler because of her wardrobe choice, while one user simply said: “Orange pants with red shoes? Bruh for real?”
Korda responded on Instagram shortly after, saying “Don’t hate me for my Orange pants and red shoes,” she wrote. “It was a bit of a wardrobe malfunction.”
