In a move as big as one of his trademark drives, LIV Golf superstar Bryson DeChambeau has been appointed chairman of the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition by Donald Trump. 

The two-time US Open champion swapped his Crushers GC gear for a suit at the White House today, standing alongside WWE icon Triple H and other sporting stars to help relaunch the Presidential Fitness Test

Their visit today was part of President Trump's signing of an executive order to expand the Presidential Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition.

Known for his relentless work ethic, scientific approach to the game, and gym‑built power, DeChambeau, 31, now has a new mission: inspiring America’s youth to get fitter, stronger and bolder, both on and off the course.

"I want to get kids excited about pushing themselves," three-time LIV Golf winner DeChambeau said in typically passionate style, clearly relishing his new role.

DeChambeau added: "We believe we can change the fabric of our communities and kids' livelihoods for the future generations that are to come.

"I can't thank you enough and looking forward to making massive changes in kids lives and America's future."

DeChambeau is now not just one of the world's best golfers, but he is also one of the most influential people in the sport as a result of his huge YouTube following that has now surpassed 2m subcribers.

His latest Break 50 video with Happy Gilmore himself Adam Sandler has recorded a whopping 6m views in just a few days.
