LIV Golf distributed $15.6 million in retention payments to seven of its executives in the period leading up to the organization's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing. Court records indicate that these payments occurred after Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund announced it would cease financial support for the golf venture. CEO Scott O'Neil received $6.375 million of the total disbursed amount.

The payments were issued during the interval between the withdrawal of Saudi funding and the formal bankruptcy proceedings. The disclosure of these executive compensation figures provides insight into the company's internal financial maneuvers during its transition into insolvency.
