This was a necessary step for LIV 2.0

Surprised they only owe Rahm $7M, figured it was way more

How do they owe Bryson and Rahm essentially the same amount when Bryson completed his contract and Rahm had two more years?

I just read that it is the amount owed for end of 2026 season. Doesn’t include $ owed for future seasons

Multiple players have confirmed that the figures owed in the chapter 11 filing correspond to quarterly “Player Participation Agreements” which were due to be paid in October, and are not the full value of their contracts.

He had this weird comment recently, but it makes more sense now. I’m sure he will be suing to get the remainder of his contract

So were the Saudis paying the guys that jumped the money all up front? That’s a heck of a deal.

I figured those big figures being bantered about were installment payments based on how long the contracts were

I assume those “team franchises” within LIV are worth $0

Guess Rahm got paid most of his money upfront which I guess is a pretty good way to get him to leave the Tour


Rick Shiels is also apparently owed 1.4 million

But it's honestly wild that their creditors don't seem to be owed that much money in the grand scheme yet they're still filing for bankruptcy. I think most expected the golfers to be owed hundreds of millions, not a total of like 25 million across all of them

It appears this is just the remainder of payments that were owed for 2026. It does not cover the full amount of multi year contracts like Rahm, Hatton, etc

Interesting that it still lists Koepka too

Couldn’t you stop white knighting for a failed product?

I quit watching golf YouTube channels that became obvious LIV supporters over night. It was obvious they were bought and paid for. Mr Short Game was the most obvious.

How do they owe any money when the PIF was behind this?
