LIV Golf, the Saudi-backed professional golf league, is shutting down after five years of operation, bringing an end to its broadcast partnership with Fox Sports. The announcement comes despite the league reporting growth in its television audience during the 2026 season.
The final LIV Golf tournament of the season concluded with Jon Rahm finishing in second place. The league's closure marks the end of a venture that had sought to disrupt professional golf since its inception.
According to reports from The Wrap, the decision to wind down operations was made even as viewership numbers showed an upward trend in the league's most recent season on Fox Sports.
