The PGA Tour stopped Weslie Bryan two weeks ago after attending an event supported by LIV Golf.
Although the tour did not comment, Brian told Monday Q, when he first reported the suspension, that he was not informed of how long the ban would be and indicated that he would follow the tour’s appeal process.
Brian, 35, is present, but not attended this week at the Corales Punta Cana Championship in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. On the schedule opposite RBC Heritage, Brian won his home country in 2017 with his only PGA Tour victory.
Brian, who no longer has full tour status, played three events in 2025, but most recently it’s March. He finished 25th in the Farmers Insurance Open in January and missed out on two cuts since.
Brian is 169th in the FedExcup ranking (31 points), with official revenue of $75,068.
He and his brother, George, have become popular for creating content on their YouTube channel, and there is a video featuring trick shots. Wesley Bryan has attended two PGA Tour Influencer events over the past year, including March, Golf Digest reported.
The Brian brothers competed in a similar event run by Liv Golf at Doral, known as “Duel: Miami,” a week before the week before the Masters. George Bryan and partner Sergio Garcia won a nine-hole scramble in the first playoff hole.
Featuring six Liv golfers and six YouTube creators, the event features a $250,000 wallet and was streamed on Grant Horvat’s YouTube channel.
According to the Monday Q Report, all creators were notified through a third party. The report says that the day after Duels was released on Horvatt’s channel, only Wesley Brian was stopped.
Brian said Monday he didn’t regret playing in the duel.
“That video is one of the most powerful videos on YouTube Golf,” Brian said. “We will continue to support Grant through YouTube and grow our game.”
He also expressed his gratitude for his career on the PGA Tour.
“The opportunities have been amazing over the last eight or nine years,” Brian said. “I am extremely grateful for that tour. I don’t want this to be the end of my professional golf career.”
Brian made 68 cuts in 134 career PGA Tour events, earning five top five finishes and nine top ten finishes.
Playing for the University of South Carolina, Brian turned professional in 2012 and took part in the PGA Tour in 2017. He won a prize of $5,247,630.
