View this post on Instagram
Bryson DeChambeau and Lilia Schneider first met on the 2022 LIV Tour and later appeared at the LIV Golf event in Chicago. At the golf event in Chicago, DeChambeau came in 8th place and suffered an eye injury that caused him to experience temporary blindness. Although he injured his eye by clotheslining himself on one of the course ropes, Schneider’s attraction to the golf star wasn’t dampened by this somewhat infamous mishap.

View this post on Instagram
A Bryson DeChambeau dating list isn’t complete without mentioning Hunter Nugent, his girlfriend before Lilia Schneider but after Sophia Bertolami. News about Nugent and DeChambeau’s relationship emerged in 2020 when DeChambeau shared one of Nugent’s Instagram posts of a picture of a gorgeous Valentine’s Day flower bouquet. Their followers immediately realized the significance of DeChambeau sharing this particular post.
When Bryson DeChambeau and Hunter Nugent saw each other, Nugent played for the University of Texas women’s golf team. She also posted dozens of images on Instagram showing her playing in numerous tournaments while representing UT.
Born in Ontario, Canada, Hunter Nugent played several golf tournaments in the fall of 2021. Her top-scoring average was 72.8 while playing for the University of Texas at San Antonio. She will be graduating from UT in 2024. Nugent ranks in the 900s for World Amateur Golf.

Between 2018 and 2021, Sophia Bertolami regularly posted updates on her Instagram account about her relationship with DeChambeau. However, her posts included personal references to DeChambeau, such as “Biggest congratulations to this guy! Beyond proud of you, B”! and “Despite being a mad scientist, I will always love holding your hand. So proud of you, B”!
Before becoming DeChambeau’s girlfriend (now ex-girlfriend), she had already made headlines with her romantic relationships with two professional baseball players–Danny Muno of the New York Mets and Mike Napoli of the Cleveland Indians.
Bertolami bears a striking resemblance to Lilia Schneider. She also continues to post stunning swimsuit selfies on her Instagram account but without mentioning DeChambeau anymore. So, we think it is safe to say that Bertolami should no longer be considered Bryson DeChambeau’s wife material.
