LIV Golf Execs Called to Emergency NYC Meeting and Rumors of Financial Collapse Are Already Spreading
LIV Golf is in crisis mode. League executives have been summoned to New York for an emergency summit on Wednesday, and the golf world is bracing for what insiders are calling a "bombshell announcement." The whispers? The Saudi-backed circuit could be on the verge of shutting down entirely.
The Rumors Getting Louder by the Hour
Golf reporter Ryan French, who runs the X account Monday Q Info with nearly 200,000 followers, dropped the first bomb: "I have some pretty good sources and I've heard that some other people have sources that LIV is shutting down." That's not speculation anymore, that's a credible voice in the golf world connecting dots.

The tour launched in 2022 with massive contracts for household names like Dustin Johnson, Bryson DeChambeau and Phil Mickelson. But the product has been a disaster from day one. Chamblee posted on X: "Given that the product was so ill-conceived and ended up being worse than anyone could have imagined, with shotgun starts, initially 54 holes, a team concept that was nothing but laughable and tournaments that meant and continue to mean nothing, and such a paltry number of viewers, losing billions along the way, would it surprise anyone if the Saudis came to their corrupted senses and finally euthanized the whole lame-brained tour."
But Wait, Some Insiders Say Everything Is Fine
Not everyone is convinced the sky is falling. Flushing It Golf posted on X that they've "spoken directly to multiple people within LIV Golf who all say they have had no issue with being paid." They're claiming future venues are proceeding as normal, with no signs of trouble. Players are getting ready for today's pro am and expecting LIV Golf Mexico City to go ahead as planned on Thursday.
The 2026 schedule still has nine events remaining. So either LIV Golf is about to implode, or this whole emergency meeting is about something else entirely. We'll find out soon enough.
