LIV Golf’s planned 2027 relaunch is in jeopardy after BC Partners withdrew its reported $300 million investment bid, citing doubts about the league’s ability to attract enough star power. A bankruptcy-court hearing Thursday could begin the league’s liquidation process.

By the Numbers
  • $300 million: BC Partners’ reported bid.
  • 30 or more players: Reported interest in joining LIV for 2027.
  • 2 tournaments: Canceled during LIV’s troubled 2026 season.
Yes, But

Some players had reportedly shown interest in the relaunch, and Bryson DeChambeau recently voiced interest in LIV’s potential future. But he has not committed, while several prominent players have withdrawn their interest.

State of Play
  • LIV filed for bankruptcy and laid off most of its employees after its Saudi backers withdrew support in April.
  • The league’s 2026 season was disrupted by canceled tournaments and financial strain.
  • Thursday’s New Jersey bankruptcy-court hearing could clarify whether LIV will wind down.
What's Next

Details on LIV’s future and a possible liquidation are expected at Thursday’s hearing.

Bottom Line

Without a major financial backer and committed star players, LIV’s planned comeback is increasingly difficult to sustain.
