Bryson DeChambeau apparently didn’t need his trusty pair of socks to secure a thrilling victory in the 2024 US Open. Two months prior to his one stroke win over Rory McIlroy at Pinehurst No. 2, he was forced to depart with the article of clothing after losing a friendly wager with a fan at LIV Golf Adelaide.

Back in April, DeChambeau and fellow players who defected to the Saudi-backed league traveled Down Under for the sixth event of the LIV Golf season. While exchanging pleasantries with the raucous crowd at the Grange Golf Club, one fan challenged him to make a 10-foot putt on the practice putting green.




“If I don’t make it, what do you want,” DeChambeau asked, to which the man promptly answered: “I want your socks.” The 30-year-old hilariously shrugged off the strange request, adding: “Alright, I’ll give him the socks.”

As the crowd cheered him on, DeChambeau narrowly missed his putt by a couple of inches to the left. He made sure to hold up his end of the bargain, swiftly taking off his socks and delivering them to the fan as the Aussie’s friends showered him with “Bryson” chants.

Upon entering the clubhouse following the strange incident, a barefooted DeChambeau had some explaining to do. “I lost my socks in a putting contest,” he said, prompting someone off camera to ask in disbelief: “You had to give someone your socks?”

“Someone wanted my socks … I missed the putt,” DeChambeau replied. “That’s disgusting, did you sign them?” someone followed up, to which DeChambeau confirmed: “Yep.” Dustin Johnson could hardly hide the confusion on his face while sitting on the steps of the clubhouse, as the cameraman panned over to him looking off in complete disbelief.
