Wesley Bryan, the renowned golfer and YouTube sensation, is once again facing disappointment. Despite his hopes of competing in the forthcoming Puerto Rico Open, Bryan was excluded from the confirmed lineup at the Grand Reserve Golf Club. Not only was he not included in the primary field, but he was also not listed as an alternate.
Bryan’s year has been fraught with challenges, especially after losing his full PGA Tour status in 2024. The defining moment came when Bryan failed to make the cut at the RSM Classic, the final event of the FedEx Cup Fall stretch. It was a tough week for Bryan, who began on the bubble and ended three over at the Sea Island Golf Club.
His journey this year has seen him heavily relying on sponsors’ exemptions and alternate spots. Bryan even made his way to the Mexico Open, only to be excluded from the field. His latest exclusion from the Puerto Rico Open is just another addition to his series of misfortunes.
Bryan, who is well-known for his YouTube channel, had hoped to secure a spot at the Puerto Rico Open as most high-profile players are taking a break before the Arnold Palmer Invitational and Players Championship. Unfortunately, this was not to be.
Upon learning of his exclusion from the Puerto Rico Open, Bryan expressed his disappointment on social media platform X, stating, “Back to my 2nd job, I reckon.” This was a reflection of his feelings after learning the latest PGA Tour lineup.
Despite the setback, Bryan has had some notable moments in the 2025 PGA Tour. He participated in two events: The American Express and Farmers Insurance Open. His performance at the Farmers Insurance Open was particularly notable as he was in contention before scoring a 76 in the final round at Torrey Pines. This led him to tie for sixth place and earn $75,000.
While at PGA West, Bryan also took time to create a YouTube video for his channel. In the video, he attempted to shoot 59 while giving himself an unlimited number of mulligans.
Bryan’s journey through 2025 remains a testament to his resilience and determination. Despite the setbacks, he continues to forge ahead, balancing his time between his golfing career and his YouTube channel. His fans and followers eagerly await his next move on the green.
