LIV Golf star Bryson DeChambeau's fascination with space travel was reignited last week when he witnessed a SpaceX rocket launch alongside President-elect Donald Trump, Senator Ted Cruz, and others in Texas. The event, focused on testing heat shield technology, left a profound impact on the two-time major champion, who shared his aspirations to venture into space during an appearance on Kai Trump's vlog.

DeChambeau expressed his desire to experience space firsthand, stating he would "literally cry for probably a good couple hours" while gazing at Earth from orbit. He even playfully suggested designing a specialized "rocket ship golf club" with boosters for Kai Trump, who has committed to playing golf for the Miami Hurricanes. This lighthearted exchange followed DeChambeau's appearance on the vlog, where Kai documented the highlights of the SpaceX launch event.

DeChambeau's connection with the President-elect has grown stronger over the summer, with Trump even featuring on DeChambeau's golf channel. In August, DeChambeau addressed any potential controversy surrounding his association with Trump, emphasizing his focus on entertainment rather than politics. He reiterated this stance during the LIV Golf Team Championship at Maridoe Golf Club, clarifying that his YouTube channel aims to provide engaging content rather than delve into political discourse.

Following his election victory, President-elect Trump invited DeChambeau on stage, where the golfer donned a "Make America Great Again" hat. While DeChambeau didn't address the crowd, his presence alongside Trump further solidified their connection.
