The LIV golfer who won this year's U.S. Open said ideas had been discussed before on how to bring players together from the rival leagues.
Speaking in advance of the LIV Golf Chicago event at Bolingbrook Golf Club, DeChambeau said Thursday he is looking forward to teaming with Brooks Koepka against Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler in December.
“I think it's a great opportunity to showcase how we evolve that over the course of time. The details are not very fully flushed out yet.” He and Koepka, in theory, will not compete in an event with McIlroy and Scheffler until next year’s Masters aside from the exhibition.“We always wanted to have a PGA Tour and LIV sort of battle a couple years ago,” he said. “We always thought that would be pretty cool and whatnot. But I think it's going to develop over the course of time and hopefully give the people what they want.”
“I wouldn't say it's meant to send a message. It's more we wanted to do something that, I guess, all golf fans could get excited about,”, where he is playing this week. “You've got the best player in the world. You've got two guys in Bryson and Brooks that have won majors in the last two years. You've got me in there who—I haven't done what those guys have done the last couple years but I've definitely been I feel one of the best players in the world.
