"Next year is when it ends...We're looking to renegotiate, end of this year, and I'm very excited. They see the value in me. I see the value in what they can provide," DeChambeau said.
"And I believe we'll come to some sort of resolution on that, and, super excited for the future. I think that LIV's not going anywhere," he added, calling LIV a "viable option" going forward.
"We're starting to grow and move in the right direction," DeChambeau added.
"I know my worth, I know what LIV brings to the table, and I'm excited for the future of what golf is gonna be."
DeChambeau reportedly signed a $100-plus million deal with LIV in June 2022.

After promising start, Rory McIlroy shoots 4-over 74 in first round of U.S. Open
Rory McIlroy went to battle with the par-5 fourth hole at Oakmont Country Club, missing the fairway with his driver, struggling in the rough and somehow managing to finish with a bogey after making a tough 30-foot putt. Rory McIlroy birdied his second and third holes in the first round of the U.S. Open, and maintained that 2-under number through his opening nine. His second nine — the front side — told a different tale. Starting his day on the 10th hole at Oakmont Country Club, McIlroy shot 33-41 for a 4-over 74. His inward half included four bogeys and a double at the par-3 eighth. It could have been worse if not for a 30-foot bogey save at the par-5 fourth. An early co-leader, McIlroy was tied for 54th when he signed his card. He had plenty of company in his misery. Playing competitors Shane Lowry and Justin Rose shot 79 and 77, respectively.
