LIV Golf, the controversial breakaway league backed by the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF), is facing severe financial difficulties, reportedly losing tens of millions of dollars each week. With PIF set to withdraw its $5 billion funding by the end of the 2026 season, LIV Golf is actively seeking $250-350 million in new capital to maintain operations. The league's current model is deemed commercially unviable, prompting discussions about reducing the number of events from 14 to 10 and offering equity stakes to players. Some players, including Bryson DeChambeau and Ian Poulter, are even considering investing their own money to support the league. CEO Scott O'Neil believes that with a new financial strategy, LIV Golf could achieve profitability within two years. However, bankruptcy is a real concern, and experts suggest that a pre-pack insolvency could facilitate a sale or merger within the next 30 to 90 days, allowing the league to emerge as a more streamlined entity.
