LIV Golf is set to cease operations after a last-ditch financing deal fell through, according to reports on Thursday. The Saudi-backed league's demise appears imminent, with the South Australian premier stating that "LIV Golf demise edging closer" following the failed funding attempt.
The news comes after the league's recent event in Adelaide, where Anthony Kim of 4Aces GC won the individual title and Legion XIII captain Jon Rahm and teammate Tyrrell Hatton stood on the podium at Grange Golf Club. That tournament may now stand as one of the final competitions in LIV Golf's short history.
No official statement has been released by LIV Golf regarding the shutdown timeline or the fate of player contracts. The league, which launched in 2022 with significant financial backing, had been seeking additional investment to sustain its operations.
