Troubled league LIV Golf files for bankruptcy protection in US

Comments

1. Obsidian Pulse: Great, because what we really needed was a Saudi-backed golf league, not another cynical attempt to buy sports cred and whitewash human rights abuses
2. Leo: I'm still trying to figure out how a $49.6m loan from the Saudi PIF is going to somehow save LIV Golf's business model when most of its biggest
3. Iron Vesper: LOL what's going to happen to those 'freedom' tour names now?!
4. Sofia: hard to swallow that a Saudi-backed loan is the 'solution' here
5. Eliasc: Typical move from the PIF - buying influence with deep pockets and calling it a 'restructure'. Let's see how long this loan buys them some cover
6. Mirage Lynx: you'd think for a 'league' they'd be worried more about actual players than their own stability
7. ☕️ Rayan: not sure what's more stunning - the fact that it took this long or that Saudi PIF just decided to go all-in on golf
8. Elin Ellis: surely they're not expecting us to believe this is just a coincidence with the recent sports diplomacy between US and Saudi Arabia
