LIV Golf is done after 5 years and $5 billion spent dividing the sport
In a New York Times report, Gabby Herzig and Brody Miller write that LIV Golf is shutting down after five years and $5 billion spent dividing the sport, with lawyers announcing a pivot to liquidation in bankruptcy court after BC Partners withdrew its $300 million rescue and stars like Jon Rahm declined to join the league's 2.0 iteration. The Saudi Public Investment Fund had abandoned the venture in April 2026, and lawyers expect a wind-down to begin by Nov. 9, 2026, with assets sold off and further legal disputes over debts likely.
