LIV Golf reportedly loses BC Partners' financial support, putting future of league in doubt

Yahoo Sports • • sports

Key Points:

  • BC Partners has abandoned its plan to fund LIV Golf in 2027 and support the league's transition to "LIV 2.0," leading LIV Golf to seek liquidation of its remaining assets, likely signaling the end of the league.
  • Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, which invested over $5 billion in LIV Golf, withdrew support earlier this year, prompting LIV Golf to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
  • Key players such as Jon Rahm, Tyrrell Hatton, Sergio Garcia, Louis Oosthuizen, Ian Poulter, and Graeme McDowell have left LIV Golf, severely weakening the league's talent pool and viability.
  • Bryson DeChambeau remains one of the few major players committed to LIV Golf but now faces uncertainty about his career as the league collapses; he may seek to return to the PGA Tour or compete on the DP World Tour.
  • LIV Golf is scheduled for a bankruptcy hearing in New Jersey, which could officially begin the liquidation process and mark the definitive end of the controversial league.
