Masters Faces Backlash Over Limited Coverage of Bryson DeChambeau's Standout Performance

Fans and public figures criticize traditional broadcasts for sidelining the LIV golfer despite his strong showing, with the Masters App emerging as an alternative viewing option.

Bryson DeChambeau, currently at 7-under par and one shot off the lead, has received minimal airtime during the 2025 Masters broadcasts on ESPN and CBS.
Rapper Lil Wayne publicly called out the lack of coverage, attributing it to bias against LIV Golf players and urging fans to use the Masters App for full access.
PGA Tour insider Dan Rapaport clarified that all of DeChambeau's shots are available live on the Masters App, but he was excluded from featured broadcast groups.
Critics note a broader pattern of reduced TV exposure for LIV-associated players, including Phil Mickelson, sparking ongoing conversations about media bias in golf.
The Masters organization has not directly addressed the criticism but continues to promote the app as a solution for fans seeking comprehensive player coverage.
