DeChambeau would bring ‘eyeballs’ to DP World Tour, says McIlroy
The former US Open champion and LIV Golf Tour player is unsure about where he will play his golf in future.
Rory McIlroy believes Bryson DeChambeau's presence would attract significant attention to the DP World (European) Tour if he were to join the circuit following LIV Golf's closure. DeChambeau, a two-time major champion, has yet to commit to any tour and is among those pushing for BC Partners to rejoin negotiations. The 2024 US Open victor would secure a card on the European Tour, but the privilege will expire in 2027.
McIlroy, ranked second in the Race to Dubai, is aiming for his fourth European Tour Championship title and to match Colin Montgomerie's record of eight Order of Merit crowns. With 2,000 points available for the champion and a win guaranteeing the title, McIlroy feels he has an advantage over his rivals due to his extensive experience on the course.
