LIV has never been more interesting off the course: 'It's never about the golf product'

LIV Golf is drawing extra attention as questions grow about its long-term viability, and Golf Today’s roundtable framed the current moment as chaotic with “swirling news” about the league’s future. The discussion referenced a dramatic mid-round scene involving former Trump adviser Yasir Al-Rumayyan and Gary Player, where the president’s helicopter reportedly took off mid-round and delayed play. Analysts also pointed to Bryson DeChambeau’s comments at Bedminster about potential financing and his desire to play on both LIV and the PGA Tour, noting that the likelihood of doing both appears “pretty much nonexistent.” The panel scrutinized DeChambeau’s claim that every golf fan wants to see him play a major tour event everywhere at all times, suggesting the statement may be overstated.
