Saudi PIF to End LIV Golf Funding After 2026 Season After Injecting Nearly $6 Billion

The Saudi Public Investment Fund announced at the end of April 2026 that it would stop funding LIV Golf at the conclusion of the 2026 season. The circuit has four events left on its schedule. LIV Golf is in its fifth season.

6 million capital injection for the 2026 season. The fund had injected north of $1 billion into LIV Golf in 2021, 2022, 2024 and 2025. Cumulative investment was set to reach $6 billion by the end of 2026.

LIV Golf's net spending averaged $100 million per month in 2024 and 2025. A high-ranking executive from a major partner told Front Office Sports that every remaining tournament is on the fence. The executive added: "I truly don’t think anyone knows.

LIV Golf's next scheduled event is July 23-26 2026 in the United Kingdom. The circuit canceled an event set for June 2026 in New Orleans, creating a gap of more than a month before the United Kingdom tournament. The cancellation was reportedly made to avoid summer heat in Louisiana.

The state of Louisiana got involved with initially postponing the New Orleans tournament until LIV could restructure its funding. LIV Golf did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital/OutKick.
