Rory McIlroy addressed journalists in Dubai ahead of the DP World Tour Championship, where victory would guarantee him a record-equalling eighth season-long title.
The six-time major winner trails Spain's Eugenio Chacarra by 533 points in the Race to Dubai standings as the final event approaches at Jumeirah Golf Estates.
Nine players remain capable of clinching the prize money and points, including Bryson DeChambeau, Patrick Reed, Casey Jarvis, Aaron Rai, Jon Rahm, Ryan Fox, Jayden Schaper and Daniel Hillier.
McIlroy noted that adding DeChambeau to the DP World Tour roster next season would increase viewership interest across the globe.
Despite the competition from nine other golfers, McIlroy believes a triumph at Jumeirah Golf Estates this week would cement his fifth straight crown.
The championship offers 2,000 points to the winner, with Chacarra currently holding the lead in the overall standings.
BBC Sport Northern Ireland reported that McIlroy feels DeChambeau is running out of options despite the potential for greater exposure.
Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy remains focused on his own campaign as the final event begins.
The gap between McIlroy and Chacarra represents a significant hurdle to overcome in the race for the top spot.
Only one player can claim the Race to Dubai title, making the remaining points crucial for all nine contenders.
McIlroy's pursuit of the eighth season-long crown continues as he prepares to compete against the field.
The outcome of this week's tournament will determine whether McIlroy closes out his historic run or if another name takes the lead.
