Kalshi Taps Bryson DeChambeau for Athlete Led Promotion

Kalshi has signed Bryson DeChambeau, according to Front Office Sports. The agreement reportedly places the LIV Golf star across television commercials, social media posts, branded campaigns, and other promotional placements.

Kalshi also plans to offer prediction markets connected to tournaments and in game moments involving DeChambeau. Market concepts range from hole by hole outcomes to full tournament results, aligning live play with short cycle event contracts.

“Am I gonna make a birdie on the next hole? Am I gonna win this tournament or that tournament? There’s just so many things you can do with prediction markets,” DeChambeau told Front Office Sports at LIV Teams Week in South Florida.

Financial details and contract length remain undisclosed. A formal announcement from Kalshi is expected Wednesday. DeChambeau also said he wants Kalshi to explore a broader partnership with LIV.

DeChambeau competes on LIV Golf and joined the Crushers team in June 2022 after nine wins on the PGA Tour. Career highlights include U.S. Open victories in 2020 and 2024, along with three LIV Golf tournament wins. Overall professional win total stands at fourteen.

Beyond prediction markets, DeChambeau already engages fans through gaming style promotions. He has worked with Underdog on fan contests that award cash prizes and a brand new Bentley.
