This might catch Bryson DeChambeau’s attention.
The PGA Tour is loosening their restrictions on their social media policy for players, making it easier for them to produce content for their private feeds, Front Office Sports reported Friday morning.
“So if I was to film a video during the week of one of their events with a content creator or a celebrity, that would be in violation to my knowledge … It’s their policy, they didn’t let me do it when I was on there. I asked various times,” DeChambeau told Skratch in an exclusive interview Wednesday.
This report comes just days after DeChambeau, who is in the final year of his LIV Golf contract, complained about how the PGA Tour’s regulations against shooting content during practice rounds on tournament grounds would be an issue for him if he pursued a return.

Getty Images FOS reported — and perhaps cleared up some confusion in DeChambeau’s mind — that “there remains no limit on how much on-site player-created content can be published during non-competition days. For example, DeChambeau could film an entire practice round at a PGA Tour event and publish it as part of his popular Break 50 series.”
DeChambeau has made it clear that the growth of his YouTube channel — which has 2.69 million followers — is one of his top priorities as he hits golf’s version of free agency.
The future of LIV Golf is very much in question after Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) recently announced that they are pulling their financial backing.
LIV CEO Scott O’Neil is leading a search for private-investment capital in order to keep the rebel league alive this year.
However, even if the league is able to survive it is unclear if they will be able to afford the type of contract that DeChambeau could command — with a $500 million number being rumored recently.
Bryson DeChambeau’s LIV Golf contract is up after this season. Bill Streicher-Imagn Images “What I can tell you about Bryson is, in my 34 years in sports, I’ve never met an athlete this purely focused on growing his brand in an authentic way,’’ O’Neil told The Post’s Mark Cannizzaro this week. “He lives it. There’s nobody more focused on LIV, including yours truly, than Bryson. He’s riffing on business plans, working his network, driving creative ideas.
“Whatever deal we work out [to retain DeChambeau] will be the deal we work out. It is a new era [without the Saudi billions backing LIV], but I have so much confidence that he is going to be the leader going forward. With Bryson DeChambeau, we have a heck of a bright future.’’
DeChambeau said that if LIV does fold he would consider working on his YouTube content and then would “love to play tournaments that want me.”
He also told ESPN this week that the circumstances for returning to the PGA Tour are “quite unfortunate,” hinting at fines that players from LIV would face.
However, in his interview with Sktratch, it did not seem as if he was completely closing the door on a return.
“I think there’s a way to solve any problem,” said DeChambeau, who is dealing with a shoulder injury at LIV Golf Virginia this week.
“It’s really about if the membership wants me back and if they just want me back. That’s what it’s about. I don’t even think it’s [PGA Tour CEO] Brian Rolapp or anybody like one of the top executives, it’s really if the players want me back and if not, then I understand that.”
In the meantime, it appears the PGA is making one obstacle less cumbersome.
“It’s one of them,” DeChambeau told Skratch about the hurdles of a potential PGA Tour return. “If you look at it, it’s affiliate marketing, so me being able to create content on that golf course that week at that event should only bring value to the tournament, and that’s what I care about most, entertaining like I’ve always said from day one.”
