Bryson DeChambeau Makes Leukemia Survivor's Dream Come True With VIP Golf Getaway
Big-hearted pro golfer Bryson DeChambeau made a 14-year-old leukemia patient's dream come true — flying brave Evan Hayes and his family to Texas for the VIP treatment of a lifetime!
The Tennessee teen, who's battled leukemia since he was 6, got the surprise of his life when Bryson not only invited him to his Grapevine home, but also gave him the run of the place!
The golf-loving youngster chipped balls alongside the PGA champ on Bryson's backyard putting green, toured his personal gym and trophy room, and even scored a full golf outfit right from the pro's closet — plus autographed balls and gear.

'He bought us lunch, dinner, put us up in a hotel, and paid for our flights,' says Evan's mom, Stephanie. 'I can't even begin to explain what an amazing person Bryson DeChambeau is!'
The emotional high point? A round of golf at the Grapevine Golf Course, where Evan teed off with his idol and watched in awe as the star stopped to greet nearly every fan who recognized him.
'He's so humble,' Stephanie adds of Bryson. 'He is such a positive guy and he made Evan feel like a star.'
