Bryson DeChambeau experienced an embarrassing moment at LIV Golf Singapore, going viral after falling into a bunker. His tee shot resulted in an uneven lie above a bunker during Saturday’s round at Sentosa Golf Club.
DeChambeau’s Uneven Lie Leads to Tumble
DeChambeau’s ball rested on a slope above the bunker, leaving him with no room for error on his second shot. He swung at the ball, but lost his balance and tumbled into the bunker. The ball then went into another bunker.
David Feherty commented, “Not the most elegant of follow-throughs.”
Despite the mishap, DeChambeau made bogey on the hole. He finished the third round with a 1-over 72, which included four bogeys.
DeChambeau’s Assessment After Third Round
DeChambeau stated, “I almost played just as good as yesterday, just things didn’t line up.”
With one round remaining, DeChambeau is tied for third with Richard T. Lee at 9 under. Lee is a LIV wildcard.
No wildcard player has finished better than T-12 in any LIV event.
Niemann and Westwood Lead the Field
Joaquin Niemann and Lee Westwood are the co-leaders. Niemann shot a 5-under 66, while Westwood carded a second straight 68.
Niemann, who won five times in 2025, said, “I hit the ball unbelievable today compared to the other days. I was able to see the ball in the windows that I was seeing in my mind. Yeah, it was nice. I played pretty confident. I was able to attack a lot of pins. Especially with the wind, I was feeling like I was able to control the trajectory really good.”
Westwood is seeking his second top-five finish on LIV Golf.
Jon Rahm is in fifth place at 7 under.
4Aces Lead the Team Competition
Dustin Johnson’s 4Aces lead the team competition at 16 under. Rahm’s Legion XIII and Cameron Smith’s Ripper GC are two shots behind.
With 18 holes remaining, DeChambeau and Lee are looking to chase down Niemann and Westwood.
