Bryson DeChambeau Finally Addressed Girlfriend Speculation Before the Masters
The Masters is finally here and few will be more-watched than LIV Golf star and YouTube sensation Bryson DeChambeau.
The former golf villain turned fan favorite comes into the first major tournament of the year in incredible form, having won back-to-back LIV Golf events ahead of his trip to Augusta National. While his first few trips to Augusta didn't bring much success, DeChambeau has finished in a tie for sixth or better in each of his last two Masters starts.
As he gets set to take to the course for the 10th time as a competitor, DeChambeau's love life is back in the headlines.

Bryson DeChambeau Finally Addressed Girlfriend Speculation
DeChambeau has remained mum on his relationship status, choosing to post only golf-related content on his social media pages.
However, not long before the Ryder Cup he finally addressed speculation regarding his potential girlfriend and admitted he was "talking" to someone.
“Uh no, I’m keeping that open,” DeChambeau said of his relationship status during a June podcast interview, per The Mirror. “… “It’s weird because I’ve started, I don’t know how to say this, it’s very dynamic, let’s say that as of right now. And I’m just trying to keep it simple and this time goes on I eventually want to find the right person.
“I’m trying to find the right person right now, and I feel like there is somebody that I am talking to that’s different and unique and you know, there’s something there.”
Bryson DeChambeau Was Linked to Lilia Schneider After Hunter Nugent Breakup
Earlier in the professional golf career, DeChambeau dated Hunter Nugent, but she informed Outkick.com in 2022 that the two were no longer dating.
She was the one that confirmed speculation that the two-time major champion was dating former college golfer Lilia Schneider. The two were later spotted at a golf event together and Schneider recently shared a social media post from a LIV Golf event, though DeChambeau wasn't pictured.
A quick check on social media shows Schneider is following DeChambeau on Instagram, but the Masters favorite isn't following the former college golfer.
DeChambeau is scheduled to tee off with Matt Fitzpatrick and Xander Schauffele at 10:07 a.m. ET on Thursday morning.
