How did Wesley Bryan prepare to shoot a course record at the 2024 Butterfield Bermuda Championship? Watching Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson
The boxing match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson took over social media last night, with millions tuning in to watch the YouTube-star-turned-boxer take on one of the sport’s GOATs. That included Wesley Bryan.
On Saturday, Bryan shot a course-record-tying 10-under 61 during the third round of the 2024 Butterfield Bermuda Championship at Port Royal Golf Course. The 34-year-old was up well into Saturday morning to watch the Netflix-run exhibition.

“I’ll be honest, woke up this morning on very, very little sleep,” he said after signing his card. “Stayed up for the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson match and that didn’t finish until about, shoot, 2:00 in the morning. It was one of those spectacle events that I just felt I needed to watch.”
Limited sleep had no impact on Bryan’s game, as he made six birdies and two eagles on his way to a bogey-free 61.
He’ll have a chance to earn his first PGA Tour win since the 2017 RBC Heritage on Sunday.
