LIV Golf filed for bankruptcy protection in a New Jersey court on Tuesday. The breakaway tour, which previously spent billions of dollars to recruit top players from the PGA Tour and caused significant division within professional golf, initiated the filing following the loss of its primary financial backers earlier this year.
Details have emerged regarding a potential restructuring of the organization, with plans for a new version of the tour expected to launch in 2027. The bankruptcy proceedings follow a period of instability for the tour after its deep-pocketed Saudi investors withdrew their support.
