The 2025 U.S. Open is scheduled for this weekend at Oakmont Country Club in Oakmont, Pennsylvania, marking the 125th time the prestigious tournament will be played.

Two-time winner Bryson DeChambeau, who won the event last year at Pinehurst Resort in Pinehurst, North Carolina, is expected to compete for the U.S. Open Trophy this year as one of the top players in the field.

On Tuesday DeChambeau, who also plays for the LIV Golf League's Crushers team, made a defiant statement on his future with LIV as he prepares to defend his 2024 U.S. Open Championship.

DeChambeau wore a Crushers polo shirt as he answered a loaded question about the league.

"When does your deal with LIV expire and have you thought beyond what your professional life would be after your LIV career?" DeChambeau was asked.

"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.
