- Presidential Election. Donald Trump assassination attempt: Ex-SEAL exposes major Secret Service failures

Bryson DeChambeau's latest YouTube video, in which he contests a round of golf with former President Donald Trump, has quickly become a sensation. The "Break 50" episode, aired this week, has captivated audiences and raised significant funds for the Wounded Warrior Project.
The format of the game was simple: each player would hit their shot, and the one with the best score would dictate where the next shot would come from. While DeChambeau, known for his accuracy and power, would normally dominate in this type of scenario, Trump's performance was remarkable. The former president, deeply involved in the game, hit impressive shots, including birdies and eagles, that kept him on target. His consistency off the tee earned him continued praise from the 30-year-old golfer.
The video, which was shot during the first week of July, prior to DeChambeau's overseas trip and the assassination attempt on Donald Trump during his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, has caused a sensation on YouTube.

In just 21 hours after its release, it surpassed four million views and became the number one trending video on the platform. YouTube channel DeChambeau also reached a major milestone, surpassing one million subscribers thanks to the buzz around the video.
The buzz around this video is not just about golf. DeChambeau, a U.S. Open champion and popular figure in the golf world, has seen his social media following skyrocket, with approximately 150,000 new followers since Trump's appearance on his channel. This surge in popularity highlights DeChambeau's growing influence and the appeal of his "Break 50" series, which has also featured other notable personalities such as Sergio Garcia and Paige Spiranac.
The "Break 50" video with Trump not only showcased an exciting round of golf, but also served a noble cause, raising funds for veterans through the Wounded Warrior Project.
Despite DeChambeau's switch from the PGA Tour to LIV Golf in 2022, and his mixed results in the majors this year, including a notable finish at the Masters and PGA Championship, his YouTube venture continues to shine.
As DeChambeau continues to mix sport with philanthropy and entertainment, his channel promises even more engaging content for fans and followers alike.
