Two-time Major winner Bryson DeChambeau has committed to staying with LIV Golf despite speculation about the tour's finances.

Reports last week suggested Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) is set to pull its financial support from the breakaway tour, placing its future in jeopardy.

And while LIV chiefs have insisted it is business as usual, senior figures in European golf have told BBC Sport they believe LIV will not continue past this year.

DeChambeau, 32, is one of the biggest draws in golf, with reports suggesting he wants $500m (£370m) to stay with LIV when his current contract expires.

He told Flushing It Golf: "As long as LIV is here, I would figure out a way for it to make sense.

"We're still working on a potential contract. I haven't given up on that and I think there will be a solution. But as of right now, my job is to help make the league work after this year.

"I just feel like I have a responsibility. I've put a lot of effort into it. So that's what I'm going to do - we're going to make this work.

"It's a start-up, right? And so there's going to be times where we're squeezed and punched. This is one of those moments.

"But I'm going to do everything in my power to make it work and I really see the value in franchise golf."

LIV caused a major split in professional golf in 2022 when it started luring star names away from the PGA Tour with the offer of huge pay increases.
