Pop star Justin Bieber shared several videos on Instagram of his round of golf in a stylish all-white outfit. However, it wasn’t just fans who commented on the posts, but also a prominent professional: Bryson DeChambeau. The current U.S. Open champion wrote under one of the videos: “Let’s shoot some golf content!”, causing speculation about a possible collaboration.
Justin Bieber shows his passion for golf
Justin Bieber not only proves his class musically, but also on the fairway. The superstar recently posted numerous golf videos in a row on Instagram. He is dressed in a snow-white outfit with a casual tank top that would make many a club president frown. But dress code breakers are nothing new in professional golf. After all, John Daly made history with his brightly colored pants. Bieber’s swing shows that the pop star clearly takes his hobby seriously, even if his fashionable interpretation of the golf look is a little more free.

Bryson DeChambeau steps up
While many fans commented on the posts, one reaction in particular stood out: Bryson DeChambeau, who had just won the U.S. Open, wrote under one of the videos: “Let’s shoot some golf content!” Whether this was a casual offer or there are already concrete plans remains to be seen. But the idea of the pop star and the golf pro appearing in front of the camera together leaves room for imagination. Could there be a joint YouTube video, similar to his “Breaking 50” series? Or even a cameo by the golf champion in a Bieber song? Golf and pop culture could merge here in an entertaining way.
Forget dress codes and tight polo shirts! On the world’s only officially recognized naturist golf course, La Jenny, on the French Atlantic coast, things are different: here golfers swing their clubs the way God created them. In the midst of pine forests and dunes, a unique golfing experience awaits – without any clothing getting in the way, but with maximum freedom of movement.
FKK Golf: The naked madness
La Jenny is no ordinary golf course. Here, nudity is not only tolerated, but expressly encouraged – as long as the weather cooperates. The course offers six holes: three par-3s (70 to 130 meters) and three par-4s (220 to 330 meters). Beginners and experienced golfers alike will find a challenge here. But one question remains: Where to put the tee? Creativity is required – because there is no trouser pocket here!
More freedom of movement – fewer tan lines!
Without tight polo shirts or pinching belts, the golf swing feels freer than ever before. So if you’ve always wanted to hone your technique without any clothes getting in the way – here’s your chance. Another bonus: The unloved tan lines are a thing of the past. If you don’t have your own equipment, you can borrow everything from the clubhouse – from clubs to golf balls. Only clothing is not on the rental list here.
La Jenny is located in the picturesque Nouvelle-Aquitaine region and is part of a larger naturist village known for its relaxed and respectful atmosphere. Since its opening in 1993, the golf course has developed into a real highlight for nature-loving golfers. After the round, the clubhouse with its cozy lounge and spacious terrace invites you to relax. Here you can enjoy coffee, fruit juices or even French wines – in the best of company, of course, and still completely informal.
La Jenny is not the only place where nude golf can be played. At Cypress Cove Resort in Florida, there is also the opportunity to play a round on the Chip n Putt course in the nude – but there it is optional, unlike at La Jenny, where nudity is mandatory.
Chapeau to the DP World Tour social media team. It couldn’t be more imaginative and funny. Whether it was the staged round table to find a Ryder Cup team captain or the self-help course in anger management for Tyrrell Hatton – it was all world class, including the cinematic realisation. The creative team’s latest coup is an influencer training course for tour professionals aka: How do I put myself in the limelight in the best and most effective way, how do I generate maximum attention. It goes without saying that there is a pinch of self-irony and a wink. But enough words, the result speaks for itself:

Bryson DeChambeau: Of Eggs and Holes-in-One
Bryson DeChambeau lives up to his new reputation as a model social media personality and is always coming up with new games and jokes. For example, he has eggs thrown at him – what you don’t do to generate attention.

Or he takes on the self-imposed challenge of making a hole-in-one – by hitting a blind shot over his own house in Dallas onto a green in his garden. The additional difficulty: the two-time US Open champion only allows himself as many attempts as the number of days he spends on the bet – so one shot on the first day, two on the second and so on. Of course, DeChambeau updates his fan community each time via TikTok to keep his followers happy:
@brysondechambeau This might take a while… #golf ♬ original sound – Bryson DeChambeau
@brysondechambeau After all this, I better be the best in the world from 100 yards #golf #fyp ♬ original sound – Bryson DeChambeau

Insight: A few weeks ago, production began on the long-awaited sequel to the golfing comedy Happy Gilmore; filming is mainly taking place in New York. And so it can happen that you open your front door in the morning and witness lead actor Adam Sandler shuffling around in his bathrobe, lugging a golf bag with him. This is exactly what happened to ‘TikTok’ user Ariana Hailand, who of course immediately shared this very special sighting with the world:
@arianahailand The nicest guy in Hollywood is now the nicest guy in Jersey #AdamSandler #HappyGilmore2 #HappyMadison #Netflix #fyp #NewJersey ♬ Good Day – Nappy Roots
Happy Gilmore 2 Will Be Distributed by Netflix
Some time ago, Christopher McDonald aka Shooter McGavin revealed that Sandler was working on part 2 of Happy Gilmore, and Netflix confirmed this a little later. It is still not known when the film will be finished and aired. But all fans waiting for the continuation of the duel between Gilmore and McGavin can rejoice: it continues just as weirdly.
Actor Tom Holland and his brothers can almost be considered regulars at the BMW PGA Championship Pro-Am. Last year, they took part in the first celebrity version of the DP World Tour’s ‘Chase The Ace’ challenge and want to give it another go this year.

Drives with Harry: The content shared by the English FA’s social media team during the European Football Championship is somewhat entertaining – certainly more entertaining than the Three Lions’ performances so far at this EURO 2024. It is even more worth watching when one of the good golfers in the team appears in front of the camera, of which there are quite a few, and shows off his skills.
England’s Harry Kane on the Driving Range
First and foremost, of course, is captain Harry Kane, who presenter Josh Denzel takes to the driving range of the Spa & GolfResort Weimarer Land in Blankenhain, Thuringia, where the English lions have set up their team base camp in this episode of “Lion’s Den”:

Captain Kane also showed his skills, albeit very late, in last night’s 2:1 win after extra time in the round of 16 match against Slovakia. After all, with the winning goal in the first minute of extra time, the goalscorer fulfilled the golf oracle in Weimarer Land, who had predicted England’s victory with a putt:

In an entertaining YouTube video, former long drive world champion Martin Borgmeier and major winner Bryson DeChambeau engage in an unusual duel. The special thing about this three-hole match: DeChambeau plays with children’s golf clubs from the supermarket.
Bryson DeChambeau shines with children’s clubs
The video begins with a humorous challenge: can Bryson DeChambeau beat Martin Borgmeier with children’s golf clubs? The four clubs in this set are a driver, a seven-iron, a pitching wedge and a putter. Before the challenge, the two joke that if DeChambeau wins, he will have to play left-handed and blind in the next match.
The first hole, a par 4, begins with a tee shot from DeChambeau. His driver hits the ball perfectly and lands about 240 metres away on the fairway. Borgmeier counters with an impressive shot that is considerably longer, as the Long-Drive-Pro repeats the whole way to their balls. Borgmeier remains cool on the green and converts his birdie putt after the LIV pro’s putt from the edge of the green missed the hole by just a few centimetres. Between holes, the duo talk about interesting topics such as DeChambeau’s swing technique in long drive competitions, technical details about DeChambeau’s driver or how many balls the golf pro has already hit in his life. But it also remains exciting on the course.
As the match progresses, Bryson DeChambeau’s technical diversity becomes apparent. After another good tee shot, DeChambeau plays the ball to within a few metres of the flag with his second shot, from where he subsequently holes out. Borgmeier is able to play a similarly good approach shot, but misses the decisive putt, allowing DeChambeau to equalise. DeChambeau shows all his class on the final par-3 and leaves the German long driver no chance.The LIV pro emerges victorious from the challenge with a score of 2 to 1 and spectators may soon be able to look forward to the next match between the likeable duo. DeChambeau jokingly commented under the video: “I guess I’ll have to play you blindfolded and left-handed now…”
