Wesley Bryan has confirmed that he has been suspended by the PGA Tour after taking part in a LIV Golf-backed event.
Speaking on his Bryan Bros Golf YouTube channel alongside his brother George, Bryan said: “As you can tell from the title and thumbnail, I have been suspended by the PGA Tour. It’s been a difficult few weeks for us. It’s been an emotional roller coaster for sure for everybody in this cart.
“Even in the midst of the little disagreement we have right now I just wanted to make sure that we said our proper thank yous, because, again, they’ve given us so much.
“And when we started our YouTube journey ten-plus years ago, all we wanted to do was fund our mini-tour journey in hopes of one day playing on the PGA Tour.
“All we’ve ever wanted to do from the Bryan Bros is be able to merge professional and YouTube golf,” he explained, “and this was going to be one of those opportunities we’ve been dreaming of since we got into YouTube golf.
“I want to be clear I do respect the authorities that are in place at the tour, but because of the ambiguity in the rules and regulations that were written, I do, as a member of the PGA Tour, have a right to appeal their decision of which I plan on exercising.
“And I don’t feel like when the rule was written it was meant to cover content creation on YouTube. I feel like it was meant to cover organised, professional, high-level golf events.”
