Phil Mickelson was the guest in the latest episode of Bryson DeChambeau's YouTube show Break 50. During the episode, DeChambeau revealed that he launched his channel to change people's perceptions and show them more of who he is.

DeChambeau is a nine-time winner on the PGA Tour, which includes one US Open win. This year, he won his second major after beating Rory McIlroy by one stroke at Pinehurst. Besides being an incredible golfer, he also owns a YouTube channel with over 1.5 million subscribers.

In the latest episode of the popular series Break 50, Bryson DeChambeau shared the story behind the origin of his YouTube journey.

"People had a thought process of who I was," he said. "I didn’t like how that was going, so I decided to take it upon myself to show people more of who I am.
"Quite honestly, it was an eye-opening experience the first time I ever did a YouTube video... it got a million views. It just opened my eyes to how people could perceive who you truly are when you present them with what you are actually doing—not just small snippets of any interaction or a poor interaction that I had or a mess-up that I had or whatever." he added.
