LIV Golf: Bryson DeChambeau proud of what LIV has achieved amid uncertain future

Published

Bryson DeChambeau says he is “proud” of what LIV Golf has achieved as the breakaway league faces questions about its future following the final event of the season in Indianapolis.

The league, which launched in 2022 as an alternative to the PGA Tour, has faced an uncertain future since Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) withdrew its financial backing in April.

Last week, its season-ending Team Championships in Michigan was cancelled, meaning the event in Indianapolis concluded the 2026 campaign.

LIV Golf CEO Scott O’Neil has said new investors have been secured for next season but has been tight-lipped on the league’s future plans and structure.

American DeChambeau, who led a selection of star players in joining LIV Golf four years ago, said although the breakaway league has not been perfect, it has “a lot of potential moving forward”.

“It has been an interesting ride, that’s for sure, everything we’ve gone through, and the tough moments we’ve had. It’s made us stronger,” said DeChambeau.

“As much as we are transitioning from LIV 1.0 to LIV 2.0, I have great thoughts about what could happen next year. I wish I could be more upfront about it.

“Ultimately I’m proud of the fact of what we’ve done, the good and some of the bad that we’ve unfortunately had, things that have occurred, I’m going to be real with it, not everything was perfect.

“But for the most part we’ve done a solid job and if there’s one thing I could say, we did something different in the game of golf and I’m proud of that.”

At the end of the interview, DeChambeau added: “I think there’s something fun coming.”

Claressa Shields targets Lauren Price fight in early 2027: ‘She always wants to fight the best’ | Boxing News

Claressa Shields is looking to fight Lauren Price in early 2027.

Shields, a two-time Olympic gold medallist for the USA, is a multi-weight professional champion.

Most recently she moved down from heavyweight to reclaim the WBA and WBC 160lbs titles when she beat Kaye Scott.

Price is a unified welterweight world champion but as an amateur was a middleweight, winning Olympic gold at the Tokyo Games in 2021.

Shields attended Price’s last fight and her promoter, Dmitry Salita told Sky Sports that she is in talks for a fight with the Welsh star early on in 2027.

“It’s a fight Claressa is seriously interested in. She flew out to Lauren’s fight earlier this year with that goal in mind,” Salita told Sky Sports.

“It’s a fight Claressa is seriously interested in. Claressa always wants to fight the best, and a matchup with Lauren would be one of the biggest fights in women’s boxing – two Olympic gold medallists and world champions. We would love to see it come together.”

Shields is looking to cement her legacy in the sport and reinforce her status as the best fighter in women’s boxing.

“Claressa reinforces that status every time she steps into the ring,” Salita said.

“From the beginning of her career, she has challenged herself against the best and made history along the way.

“Our goal is to keep making the biggest and best fights, and Lauren is certainly a fighter Claressa would welcome that opportunity against.”
