The 32-year-old is under a 4.5-year LIV contract worth more than $125 million, which runs through the year. Reports earlier this year indicated he hoped to continue with LIV beyond 2026, though details for 2027 remain unclear.
DeChambeau’s Mexico City week was challenging despite his recent LIV success, as he followed back-to-back LIV wins in Singapore and South Africa with a 71-71-73, finishing two over par and 16 behind the leader.
At the Masters last week, he missed the cut after an opening round of 71, citing weather and course conditions rather than an injury as factors in his performance.
Reaction on social media reflected a split of opinion, with some fans urging him to consider returning to the PGA Tour, while others wished him a full and speedy recovery.
LIV Golf Virginia is set for May 7-10, and an update on DeChambeau’s status and recovery timeline will likely follow after medical evaluations.
