I don't know what to do right now..' - Bryson DeChambeau discusses future as LIV Golf consider bankruptcy

As the previously Saudi-backed LIV Golf circuit now prepares to file for bankruptcy, the future of the circuit appears to be in complete disarray, and flagship American major winner Bryson DeChambeau is feeling the effects.

The LIV Golf circuit sold the world a pipe dream, plundering hundreds of millions of dollars into a circuit that was supposed to rival the PGA for decades.

Immediately, it attracted stars of the scene who wanted to capitalise early, counting on it eventually engulfing the esteemed PGA Tour.

One of those was Bryson DeChambeau, who, despite having earned a whopping $60 million in his three years at LIV, now has no idea what to do next.

In a new interview, the two-time major champion has considered retiring completely and opting for an indifferent future.

Fifth in the LIV earnings list, behind Dustin Johnson, Talor Gooch, Joaquin Niemann, and Jon Rahm, DeChambeau's future has been a hot topic among fans.

Recently, LIV's loudest critic, Rory McIlroy, claimed that the series will continue in a limited capacity, with golfers looking to keep playing even without the paydays.

But DeChambeau might not be one of them.

Appearing on a podcast with Katie Miller, he revealed that he 'doesn't know' whether he will continue in professional golf or hang up the clubs indefinitely.

"I'm in that weird space right now, I don't know what to do," he said.

"Either: Content creation or professional golf. I don't know what to do right now."

The 32-year-old golfer runs a successful content page on YouTube, offering fans an inside into what makes a champion tick, undergoing wacky challenges, and reviewing his best moments with a club in hand.

Currently, his channel has 2.7 million subscribers, with each video consistently pulling in equally large viewership figures.

He revealed that, in terms of which route is most lucrative, his YouTube channel revenue is roughly the same as what he gets through tournament earnings.

DeChambeau recently claimed that he could make his channel 'two or three times bigger,' and open the wider world to his golfing shenanigans through dubbing content in different languages.

He's clearly put a lot of thought into life without a professional card.

If he does stay in golf, though, he has recently squashed reports that claimed he was 'definitely' heading back to the PGA Tour.

One golfer who has escaped the turmoil of LIV is Jon Rahm, who has now joined the DP World Tour after paying off the last of his fines (worth around £2.2 million).
