Reports indicate that LIV Golf has ceased operations, leaving questions about the future of the Saudi-backed league and its financial obligations to players. According to USA Today's Golfweek, two-time major champion Bryson DeChambeau is owed $5.77 million by the organization.
The development marks a significant moment in professional golf's recent turbulent period, which saw the sport divided between the established PGA Tour and the upstart LIV Golf series. DeChambeau, who joined LIV Golf in 2022, was one of the league's most prominent signings.
Details regarding the league's dissolution and the process for settling outstanding player contracts remain unclear. The situation raises broader questions about the sustainability of the LIV Golf model and the resolution of its financial commitments to contracted players.
