- LIV Golf filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in September, and efforts to keep the league alive have collapsed.
- Saudi investors confirmed plans to withdraw funding after the 2026 season, a decision that preceded the September bankruptcy filing.
- BC Partners had tentatively agreed to invest in a "LIV 2" — the prospective deal driving the news.
- Chapter 11 arrives with no confirmed backer beyond 2026: the Saudi exit is settled, while the "LIV 2" investment remains tentative.
Why it matters: Saudi investors plan to withdraw funding after the 2026 season, leaving LIV Golf's September Chapter 11 case with no confirmed backer beyond that year. The only successor named is BC Partners' tentative "LIV 2" investment — a proposal, not a closed deal.
