LIV Golf, which emerged in 2022, faces an uncertain future as Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) plans to withdraw its financial support by the end of the current season. This development could lead to the league's collapse, prompting many players, including Chilean golfer Joaquin Niemann, to consider a return to the PGA Tour. Niemann, who has achieved significant success in LIV Golf with seven wins, expressed a desire to return to the PGA Tour, acknowledging that competing in majors may require him to play on that platform. Since joining LIV Golf in August 2022, Niemann has struggled in major tournaments, recording only two top-20 finishes and one top-10 finish. As the PGA Tour continues to thrive, Niemann's potential return will depend on whether the organization is willing to offer him a pathway back.
