## Key points

- McIlroy says DeChambeau could bring attention to tournaments.
- LIV Golf has filed a joint Chapter 11 bankruptcy plan.
- DeChambeau must decide by Sunday on European Tour membership.

## Summary

Rory McIlroy said Bryson DeChambeau could attract attention to tournaments as he considers his next move after LIV Golf’s collapse. His remarks mark a more welcoming tone than his criticism of DeChambeau’s behaviour at the British Open in July.

LIV filed a joint Chapter 11 bankruptcy plan on Tuesday, leaving DeChambeau without a clear competitive home. The PGA Tour usually bars former LIV players for a year after their last appearance, while DeChambeau may qualify for European Tour membership through his 2024 US Open win and must decide by Sunday. He has more than three million YouTube subscribers and has suggested he might focus on videos and the four majors.
