Per Bloomberg

LIV Golf has retained law firm Gibson Dunn & Crutcher and investment bank Ducera Partners to seek new investors and evaluate restructuring options. Additionally, LIV management is exploring moving the league's headquarters to the United States to utilize Chapter 11 bankruptcy laws, offering asset protections against foreign creditors.

They are telling investors they need 250 million and will be profitable in 20 months

So 5 billion couldn’t make them profitable but 250m will

And if all they need is 250 million to be profitable why the gell would PIF pullout? It’s ridiculous. Even liv bots on twitter are calling out O’Neil

Just give me Rahm, Bryson, DJ, Hatton, Cam Smith, Kim, Puig, Ballester, Sergio and Niemann back on the tour and tell the others to F off and call it a day.

You have 8 names too many.

Rahm and Bryson, and I'll take a motivated DJ. The rest can go Korn Ferry or DPWT. You think the Tour wants any part of Sergio?

I'd love Hatton back on Tour TBH. He's a great personality for the game and pretty damn good at golf.

I'm simply speaking of who I'd want to watch. The Tour can do whatever it wants it doesn't matter to me.

I would give major winners for the past 5 years the Brooks route. Everyone else, welcome to Q School. Play your way to Korn Ferry.

It'd actually be real easy.

Cut the purse to $40 mil/season, rather than $40 mil/event
Eliminate league contracts
Operate a global golf league on $200 mil (is this even possible?)
Profit $10 mil - 4% ROI!!!

I don't think the players would mind either. It's only like a 92% pay cut.

Who in their right mind would invest in that league.

If it is so viable, the LIV Players should jointly invest to get the 250 million.

Misleading thread title. They're (smartly) preparing in the event that it's needed after this season.
