Bryson DeChambeau reveals he’s planning to focus on YouTube if LIV Golf ends

by

If the LIV Golf league collapses, golfer Bryson DeChambeau intends to focus on creating content for his YouTube channel rather than rejoining the PGA Tour.

For several weeks, the future of LIV Golf has been uncertain. Rumors circulated that the tour, backed by Saudi Arabia, might not finish its 2026 season, or even hold its event in Mexico City, but those reports turned out to be inaccurate.

LIV Golf announced it will finish its current season, but will no longer provide the large prize money that previously funded the tour. This has left several golfers uncertain about their future plans. Some top players, including Brooks Koepka and Jon Rahm, have already secured opportunities with other golf tours as a backup plan in case LIV ceases operations.

Instead of trying to reconcile with the PGA Tour, Bryson DeChambeau is focusing on expanding his presence on YouTube.

Bryson DeChambeau happy to focus on YouTube moving forward

According to ESPN, the golfer who’s won the US Open twice has been talking with the PGA Tour about potentially playing again, but he’s currently focused on developing his own online channel.

On May 5th, he shared his goals, saying he’d like to triple the size of his YouTube channel, and potentially grow it even further. He’s also eager to expand by creating dubbed versions of his content in multiple languages, hoping to reach a wider global audience. Finally, he expressed a desire to participate in tournaments that are interested in having him compete.

The 32-year-old suggested that the PGA and LIV Golf should collaborate, emphasizing the need for fairness and a positive outlook to help golf grow. He explained that this was his motivation for joining LIV and for creating content on his YouTube channel.

He explained that he can still get invited to many tournaments with sponsor exemptions, and he’s guaranteed a spot in major championships like the PGA Championship, UK Open, and The Masters through 2028. Because he’s won in the past, he’s also eligible for the US Open until 2033.

Bryson DeChambeau was involved in a lawsuit against the PGA Tour, claiming unfair suspensions of players who moved to the LIV tour. However, he withdrew from the case in 2023.

With over 2.69 million YouTube subscribers, he posts a new video each month. The 32-year-old recently made waves at The Masters golf tournament by using custom-made, 3D-printed golf clubs.
