DeChambeau spent much of last November trying to complete the hole-in-one test.
It saw the LIV Golf star attempt to hit a 100-yard ace over his house into his garden, where he has built a practice course.
Bryson, 31, finally achieved the hole-in-one on Day 16 of the challenge, taking a total of 134 shots.
Following the feat, he opened up the challenge to the public and allowed fans to compete for a six-figure payout.
But DeChambeau was not ready for amateur Jimmy Elliot, who rocked up to the golfer’s pad in Florida with luck on his side.
Elliot, on just his fifth attempt, hit a perfect wedge over the 100ft house and onto the green.
The ball bounced kindly before running down the slope and into the hole.
A stunned Bryson celebrated wildly with Elliot in a video which quickly went viral.

He gasped: “It literally took him six minutes to make it. It took me 134 frickin’ balls.”
Jimmy, looking completely blown away, added: “That was incredible.
“Thank you to Bryson. This is incredible. Life-changing, man. Thank you.
“This is up there with my wedding day.”
He added with a grin: “So don’t tell my wife.”
One fan responded on X: “Bragging rights over his buddies for a long time.”
Another said: “I’ll take this experience over 5 holes in 1 on the course.”
While a third added: “The bounce from God.”
DeChambeau, a two-time major winner, is currently ranked No. 4 in the world.
Known as The Scientist, the 31-year-old grew up in Grapevine, Texas, and has racked up over £60million in career earnings.
The US Open champion expanded his social media reach in 2024 and golfed alongside incoming president Donald Trump in his hit YouTube format Break 50.
