LIV stars are eyeing the exit door after the Saudi Public Investment Fund withdrew support for next season.
Bryson DeChambeau has been seen speaking to PGA Tour officials, exploring his options about a potential return that the tour is unwilling to offer him, and others seeking a return, the same deal that was offered to Brooks Koepka this year.
Koepka came back to the PGA Tour this season under a specific set of circumstances. He paid $5 million to charity and agreed not to receive sponsor exemptions to Signature Events or FedEx Cup bonus money.
That same deal was offered to DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, and Cameron Smith, but they didnāt accept it by the deadline set by the tour. The PGA Tour made clear that this was a one-time only offer.
But should this offer be given to DeChambeau and Rahm once again, now that LIVās future is in doubt? World number three Cameron Young shared his thoughts.

Cameron Young has broken out as the PGA Tourās newest star with an incredible season so far in 2026. He won The Players and The Cadillac Championship, and went head-to-head with Rory McIlroy down the stretch at The Masters.
And with that newfound star status, heās now facing questions about the future of LIV players like DeChambeau and Rahm. His take is that it wonāt be as simple for them as it was for Koepka, who was the only one to take the original offer.
Speaking on the Pat McAfee show, he said, āI feel like itās a little bit tricky because I think itās been great to have Brooks back. Heās a fan favorite. Heās a great golfer. Great major championship player. So, Iām happy to have him back. I think itās good for the PGA Tour. I think itās good for the game to get to see him more.
Brooks Koepka was offered a deal that included a $5 million donation to charity and an agreement to forgo sponsor exemptions and FedEx Cup bonus money.
They are exploring a return due to the withdrawal of support from the Saudi Public Investment Fund for LIV Golf next season.
The withdrawal of funding may lead LIV Golf players, like DeChambeau and Rahm, to seek opportunities with the PGA Tour.
The PGA Tour is reportedly unwilling to offer DeChambeau and others the same deal that was extended to Koepka.

āBut I mean, the tour did have the system that they put in place for him. They had the opportunity this January for some of those guys, a select few, to come back. And Brooks was the only one to take that opportunity.
āSo now, I mean, itās not up to me, but I think the PGA Tour, I imagine, they will find a way for some of those guys to come back, but I donāt know if it will be as simple as it was for Brooks. His relatively time-wise, he didnāt have to sit out or anything like that.
āSo, I really have no good information on what will happen. But all in all, I mean, I play golf to play golf against the best players in the world. Thatās one of the main things that drives me, is to is to compete.
āAnd I donāt know, to me, thereās a handful of really, really good players that are over there, and seeing them four times a year, Iād probably rather compete against them more. So, if youāre asking me, Iād probably like to see them back in some capacity, however they decide thatās going to work out.
āAnd youād like it to be fair to both sides. I think I donāt think thereās any reason to unduly punish them coming back, but at the same time, like you said, you know, it felt like kind of an all or nothing decision to go.
āSo, up to people smarter than me to figure out how it all is going to work out.ā
PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp was recently asked about this very subject. He made an appearance on the Trey Wingo podcast and spoke on LIV Golfās current state and the future of its players on the PGA Tour.
He said heās none the wiser on the future of LIV Golf now it has lost PIF funding. Rolapp said,
āIām like everybody else, Iām just reading things as they come across. I donāt know whatās going on. It would be premature for me to speculate, so I donāt have a lot to say. I just see the same stories everybody else sees.
āAs Iāve said, weāre pretty focused on what weāre doing here and how weāre making the PGA Tour better, so thatās clearly where my focus is.ā
He also isnāt yet willing to say what deal he would offer DeChambeau and Rahm if they were to seek a return.
Rolapp added, āIāve always said on this subject, Iām interested in doing whatever makes the PGA Tour better. Fans want the best players playing together. Iāve always said that from day one when I took the job.
āHaving said that, I donāt know what the circumstances are. Once thereās clarity, weāll cross that bridge, but weāre clearly not there yet.ā
If Rolapp doesnāt know what the deal is, then itās not likely to be the same as the one Koepka received. Thereās a lot to work out in the coming months.
