LIV Golf future in doubt

LIV Golf future in doubt

The breakaway golf circuit, which has spent an estimated $6 billion since its inception, is facing a critical moment of financial pressure.

Reports suggest that the PIF is reconsidering its long-term commitment to the league as part of a broader rebalancing of its international sporting portfolio.

This uncertainty has left some of the game's biggest stars, who defected to LIV for massive contracts, in a state of career limbo.

While the tour denies any imminent collapse, the lack of a confirmed schedule for 2027 has fueled rumors that the Saudi 'sportswashing' era in golf may be nearing its end.
