Golf superstar Bryson DeChambeau wants a family.
“A bunch. I’d love to have a bunch of kids. Four, for sure,” he shared on “The Katie Miller Podcast.”
Miller then asked DeChambeau about his view on family roles.
“Do you believe that a man’s place is out at work and the woman’s place in the home?” she asked. “Or what’s your core set of beliefs on how a family should work these days? Or do you think it’s dependent upon the partners?”

“I think it’s situationally dependent, right? Financially…if the male can’t support the full family, like, there are times that you’re going to have to make difficult decisions where the woman’s gonna have to go out there, but traditionally I would love to see, I like to see women being as, I would say, engaged and opportunistic as possible. If they wanna go work, if they want to go build their own business, go do it,” the PGA star said.
“I would also say, if you’re having a family, make sure to prioritize, right, and make sure that you’ve got the opportunity for yourself to take care of your kids and do the right thing for your kids, as well as the man should do the exact same thing. A man needs to have time with the family, right?” he continued.
At the PGA Championship over the weekend at Aronimink Golf Club, DeChambeau was cut on Friday after he went seven over through two rounds. It was one of the worst weekends of golf he has had in a long time.
According to the Wall Street Journal, a contributor to DeChambeau’s struggle on the golf course was Saudi Arabia pulling its funding from LIV Golf. LIV Golf is a professional men’s golf league funded by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund. This leaves DeChambeau in a vulnerable position as he’s faced with uncertainty about his future.
“I’m in that weird space right now. I don’t know what to do, either: Content creation or professional golf,” DeChambeau said on Miller’s podcast.
DeChambeau was under the impression that funding for the professional league was secured through 2032, but that clearly is not the case.
As the golf professional weighs his future, one thing is certain: DeChambeau wants a family built on the right priorities.
