LIV Golf faces uncertainty as backers pull away
Original: liv golf
LIV Golf is under mounting pressure after reports it could be forced to liquidate assets following the loss of financial backer BC Partners. Ian Poulter has quit the league, Louis Oosthuizen says it is 'time to move on', and the DP World Tour will deny LIV players memberships for the 2027 season, forcing them to choose between tours. Commentators are asking whether the breakaway league was ever more than noise.
Why now: Multiple major developments in one week — a financial crisis, high-profile player exits and a DP World Tour exclusion — have put the Saudi-backed league's future in doubt.
