Bryson DeChambeau was forced to give away his socks after losing a putting contest with a fan at LIV Adelaide.
The American is competing in Australia at LIV Golf’s latest tournament where his fans put in a very strange request.
On Saturday, DeChambeau had made a bet with a group of supporters on the side of the green in a video posted on his TikTok account.
He agreed to sign their hats if he made the putt but then requested what they would want if he didn’t make it.
And one fan gleefully and very quickly responded: “I want your socks!”
DeChambeau then accepted while laughing saying: “Alright, I’ll give you my socks.”
The 30-year-old then set up the putt as the group watched on from behind him and piled on the pressure.
That pressure seemed to get to him, as he missed the putt much to the Aussie fans’ delight.
As DeChambeau approached them and removed his socks, they chanted: “Bryson, Bryson, Bryson!” while worshipping him.
And then the happy recipient of his socks claimed his prize after winning the bet, leaving DeChambeau in hysterics.
The loss in the putting contest meant he was forced to walk back into the clubhouse barefoot with his shoes in his hands.
And on the way there he passed former World No.1 Dustin Johnson who, of course, questioned what he was doing.
DeChambeau replied: “I lost my socks in a putting contest.”
To which Johnson said: “Someone wanted your socks?”
Before he continued to express his disbelief and looked straight into the camera, saying: “That’s disgusting.”
He then followed that up asking if he signed them and DeChambeau admitted ‘Yep’ before strutting into the building.
Both players are featuring at LIV Adelaide this week with the fourth round taking place today.
As it stands, DeChambeau is T26 on 10 under while Johnson sits at T31 at nine under.
DeChambeau is aiming to follow up his impressive T6 finish at The Masters with a victory on his return to LIV Golf competition.
But he’ll now have to dig into his spares to make sure he’s got some socks to wear for the final round of play!
