LIV's Return to PGA Tour Exposes its Doomed Gamble

An opinion piece arguing that LIV Golf, backed by Saudi money, is doomed. It notes Koepka and Reed’s return to the PGA Tour as evidence that the lure of money cannot match the legacy of traditional golf stars, predicts LIV’s eventual fade, and discusses potential exit strategies or alliances (e.g., with the DP World Tour) as Saudi interests waver. The piece stresses that LIV’s high-spending venture lacks sustainable depth or lasting impact beyond cash incentives.

Reed sets sights on a 2027 PGA TOUR comeback after DP World Tour stint

Patrick Reed announced plans to return to the PGA TOUR later this year and pursue reinstatement for the 2027 season after resigning his TOUR membership following an unauthorized event in 2025. He would return as a non-member in 2026 and could compete in FedExCup Fall events before potentially reinstating to the past-champion category for 2027, while remaining an Honorary Lifetime Member on the DP World Tour. Reed sits No. 29 in the world rankings after winning the Dubai Desert Classic, but did not meet the Returning Member Program criteria, making Brooks Koepka the likely only player to return via that route.

Patrick Reed shot a remarkable 59 during the third round of the Link Hong Kong Open, taking a three-shot lead in the Asian Tour event.

Patrick Reed's Defamation Lawsuits Dismissed by Federal Judge

A federal judge in Florida has dismissed golfer Patrick Reed's $750 million defamation lawsuits against the Golf Channel, various commentators, and media outlets. The judge ruled that Reed's complaints did not provide sufficient evidence of actual malice, and many of the statements in question were not specifically about Reed or were matters of opinion. Reed had accused the defendants of conspiring to destroy the LIV Golf Tour and labeled him as a cheater, liar, thief, murderer, and someone who accepts blood money from terrorists. The judge will decide whether the defendants are entitled to recover attorney's fees and court costs from Reed.

Golfers Slam USGA's Proposed Ball Rollback Plan.

Eddie Pepperell has criticised LIV Golf, the Saudi-backed tour, for spending an unprecedented amount of money to attract players like Bryson DeChambeau, Dustin Johnson and Cameron Smith. Pepperell responded to a tweet that claimed LIV's future growth was unlimited, saying that if you spend in a year a significant chunk of what another institution has spent in nearly a century, it shouldn’t be surprising you’d get players like Cameron Tringale in return. Meanwhile, Bryson DeChambeau has mocked the USGA in a TikTok video after blasting the "atrocious" ball rollback plan.
