Overview
- LIV Golf’s Louisiana stop set for June 25–28 was reported Monday as postponed, with an official announcement expected Tuesday.
- Louisiana will be repaid about $1.0–$1.2 million in advance fees, and roughly $2 million in course upgrades at City Park will stand as improvements to a state asset.
- State sources and multiple outlets link the move to doubts about future backing from Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund and a push for LIV to restructure its finances.
- League and state leaders are discussing a smaller, re-envisioned tournament in the fall, while near-term events in Virginia, South Korea and Spain remain on the calendar and a long mid-summer gap now opens.
- LIV is courting new investors and weighing team equity sales, a shift that follows CEO Scott O’Neil’s earlier promise that the 2026 season would continue at “full throttle.”
