Bryson DeChambeau Stuns Fans, Officially Cuts Ties with PGA Tour—Fully Commits to LIV Golf Despite Critics Calling It His Worst Move Yet!
DeChambeau Ends Speculation About PGA Tour Return
Bryson DeChambeau has made his stance crystal clear—he has no intention of returning to the PGA Tour and is fully committed to LIV Golf.
Speaking at a press conference ahead of LIV Golf Hong Kong, the third event of the 2025 season, DeChambeau addressed ongoing rumors about top LIV players considering a move back to the PGA Tour. As discussions continue between the PGA Tour and Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) about unifying men’s professional golf, speculation has swirled that some LIV players may be looking for a way back.
DeChambeau, however, dismissed those claims and reaffirmed his dedication to LIV Golf.
“I’m very excited about the future of LIV Golf,” he stated. “As the captain of the Crushers, I’m focused on building a legacy that will inspire millions of golfers around the world. That alone should tell you everything you need to know.”
Debate Over LIV Golf Defections Heats Up
Recent reports of LIV players wanting to return to the PGA Tour have sparked intense debate. 1992 Masters champion Fred Couples recently claimed that Brooks Koepka had expressed a desire to come back, igniting further speculation.

Despite all the discussions surrounding a potential reunion, DeChambeau made it clear—he has no plans to leave LIV Golf.
DeChambeau’s Popularity Extends Beyond LIV Golf
While DeChambeau remains a major draw in golf, his appeal goes beyond just his performances in LIV events. Though he has produced some standout moments—such as his historic 58 at LIV Golf Greenbrier in 2023—his most significant accomplishments have come at major championships.
In 2024, he finished as the runner-up at the PGA Championship before securing his second U.S. Open title at Pinehurst No. 2. His growing fanbase also extends beyond the course, with his YouTube channel attracting 1.74 million subscribers, making him one of the sport’s most marketable figures.
Despite his entertainment value and star power, DeChambeau remains committed to LIV Golf, rejecting any notion of a PGA Tour comeback.
Gearing Up for the First Major of the Year
With the first major championship of 2025 just over a month away, DeChambeau is fine-tuning his game in preparation.
“I’m excited. I feel ready,” he shared. “I’ve made some adjustments with the golf ball, and this week is about testing it out. So far, it’s been working well, but we’ll see how things unfold. No matter what happens, I’m genuinely looking forward to this season.”
Did DeChambeau Make the Right Call?
While DeChambeau appears confident in his decision, critics argue that his long-term career prospects could suffer from staying with LIV Golf. With talks of unification between the PGA Tour and PIF, some believe he may be missing a crucial opportunity to reestablish himself in the traditional golf landscape.
Was this the right move for DeChambeau, or will he regret distancing himself from the PGA Tour? Share your thoughts and stay tuned for more updates as the 2025 season unfolds!
