LIV Golf says it has reached an agreement with a new, unnamed “lead investor” to support the tour beyond Saudi Arabia’s financial backing. Multiple outlets report the deal is positioned to cover the series’ future, with some framing it as securing operations for 2027 and a player-driven future.
The announcement comes after Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) said in April it would stop funding the breakaway league, with the end of the 2026 season cited as the deadline. BBC Sport, Al Jazeera, and others describe the investor as unnamed and note LIV Golf approval or agreement through its board. Sky Sports, The Independent, and Yahoo Sports similarly highlight the timing and the need to secure “post-Saudi” funding.
Some reports also add that LIV’s season faces disruption, including claims that the final event is cancelled and the season ends early, linking that uncertainty to the withdrawal of PIF support.
