## Key points

- A bankruptcy court hearing is expected to start liquidation.
- Several leading players have rejected the restructuring plan.

## Summary

BC Partners has reportedly withdrawn its plan to fund LIV Golf’s proposed “LIV 2.0”, citing doubts about player commitment and whether the league could be viable. The decision deepens uncertainty over LIV’s future: a New Jersey bankruptcy court hearing is expected to begin a liquidation process.

The article says Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund stopped funding LIV in April, and LIV filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in September. It estimates the league spent $5 billion to $8 billion between 2021 and 2026, while bankruptcy filings list unpaid compensation owed to players including Jon Rahm, Bryson DeChambeau, Dustin Johnson and Cam Smith. Rahm and several other players have rejected the proposed restructuring, and LIV has reportedly laid off most operational staff.
