When Brooks Koepka got reinstated to the PGA Tour, everyone thought Bryson DeChambeau would also make the switch. After all, the PGA Tour gave him and Jon Rahm a gateway to rejoin. However, the Crushers GC captain denied the rumors. Notably, Rory McIlroy isn’t too bothered about it.

Speaking to The Telegraph, the Irishman said, “It’s not as if they made any huge signings this year, is it? They haven’t signed anyone who moves the needle, and I don’t think they will. I mean, they could re-sign Bryson for hundreds of millions of dollars, but even if they do, it doesn’t change their product, does it? They’ll just be paying for the exact same thing. And they’ve lost Brooks, so they’ll be paying out all this money.”

LIV Golf has struggled to sign any big names for the 2026 season. They approached quite a few players over the last few months. However, Scott O’Neil & Co. have failed to convince any pro who can upscale their product.

Despite constant speculation regarding him making the switch, Si Woo Kim denied any rumors by confirming his commitment to the PGA Tour. Akshay Bhatia also refused to join his mentor, Phil Mickelson‘s HyFlyers GC. Apparently, Max Greyserman also rejected an eight-figure salary from the PIF-funded promotion to stay put at the PGA Tour for at least another season.

After facing so many rejections, it’s clear that LIV Golf has still not developed a convincing enough product to attract talent. Getting DeChambeau to sign what is rumored to be a $500 million contract might not be a big win for them. Especially considering that even DeChambeau is uncertain about the direction of the contract negotiations with O’Neil & his team.

Speaking of which, DeChambeau revealed how the contract conversation was going. And the situation at LIV Golf is not as smooth-sailing as it seems.

Is Bryson DeChambeau considering a life away from LIV Golf?

Apparently, LIV Golf and the PGA Tour are not the only options for Bryson DeChambeau. In an interview, he spoke about YouTube being a good option: “That’s an incredibly viable option, I’ll tell you that.”

“It’s a possibility. Financial opportunities are there. Excited to see what comes in the future,” DeChambeau admitted as he possibly looked at a future away from either of the leagues. However, as far as his LIV Golf contract negotiations go, he shared some interesting details.

“We are negotiating now. Hopefully, we can come to a solution where it makes sense in the longterm. If not, we will see what happens.” It seems that he’s still uncertain about staying back at LIV Golf. Even though the Crushers GC confirmed they will play the 2026 season with the same team, the ‘Returning Members Programme’ might have swayed DeChambeau’s opinion. Could he also be considering a move to the PGA Tour if LIV Golf doesn’t progress as he desires? We’ll have to wait to find out.
