(opens the publisher’s site)LIV Golf will wind down its operations after a last-ditch financing rescue collapsed, the breakaway league announced on Thursday.
- LIV Golf said on Thursday it will liquidate after BC Partners withdrew a $300 million financing plan that would have funded a 2027 season.
- Attorney Matthew Williams told a New Jersey bankruptcy court the league failed to secure the financial and player support needed for its LIV 2.0 plan.
- LIV Golf filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on September 8 after Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund ended funding in April following investments exceeding $5 billion.
- Jon Rahm, Sergio Garcia, and Tyrrell Hatton declined to commit to LIV 2.0 and plan to play on the DP World Tour next season.
