“We have negotiations with players ongoing,“ he replied.
*“*His happens to get quite a bit of attention. Bryson is an extraordinary partner. He is the most popular golfer on the planet.
*“*He’s winning. He loves team golf. He believes in the vision of LIV. He’s willing to travel around the world, grow the game. And of all the athletes I’ve worked with in my career — and there’ve been a lot of them, from a lot of different sports — he’s the most pure to the mission of an athlete I’ve ever met.
“And Bryson has asked to sit side by side with me and Ducera [LIV’s investment bank] to raise money together.“
DeChambeau’s current contract with LIV Golf is set to expire at the end of the 2026 season, so it’s easy to see why golf fans and journalists are speculating so much about where he will be playing his golf next season.
Bryson DeChambeau is more ‘pro-LIV’ than Scott O’Neil
O’Neil was asked whether potential investors are asking him whether DeChambeau will be playing on LIV Golf from the start of 2027 onwards.
“Bryson is more pro-LIV than I am,“ he said.
*“*We talked yesterday [Tuesday] about him joining me for the investor meetings, so I think that’ll be a pretty good indication as to what’s going to transpire.
*“*He’s really smart. He’s very intuitive. He’s as good a brand builder as I’ve ever seen. From a marketing standpoint, his creativity almost knows no bounds, surrounds himself with good people, and has a real strong opinion as to how we should go forward together.
“So he’s very well in the plans, and he’ll be joining me on a lot of investor pitches.“
The fact of the matter is that Scott O’Neil can say all he wants about Bryson DeChambeau’s love for LIV Golf, but as long as he doesn’t commit to a new contract, there will always be speculation surrounding his future.
