LIV Golf may be filing for bankruptcy—but could a $250 million investment save the league before it's too late? In this episode of The Golf Podcast we break down the biggest and most confusing LIV Golf story yet as reports emerge that the league is preparing for a potential bankruptcy filing while, at the very same time, other reports claim LIV has secured up to $250 million in new investment to keep the league alive. We unpack what these seemingly contradictory headlines really mean, why bankruptcy doesn't necessarily signal the end of LIV Golf, and how a restructuring could pave the way for a dramatically different LIV Golf 2.0 built around player equity and outside investors. We also discuss what this could mean for stars like Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau, whether players would choose ownership over guaranteed contracts, and if the league can realistically survive with a leaner schedule and reduced purses. Plus, we revisit the mystery surrounding LIV's Michigan Team Championship after reports of its cancellation stalled without an official announcement, and debate whether a last-minute funding deal could change everything. Is LIV Golf truly on the verge of collapse, or is this simply the next chapter in its evolution? Join us as we separate fact from speculation and examine what could be the most pivotal moment in LIV Golf's short but turbulent history.   Listen to This Week’s Show Download on iTunes here Listen on Spotify here Thanks to this Week’s Sponsors Titleist is committed to ensuring that every golf ball delivers superior quality and consistency.  From ball to ball, dozen to dozen we should expect our golf ball to perform exactly the same way, shot after shot.

With the Western Am at one of his favorite spots in Chicago, Andy is in a great mood for this Wednesday recording. To start things off, he gets Brendan going on the wonders of growing up as caddies and the lessons they learned at a young age that today's kids are missing out on due to their "silly apps." Eventually they get to pro golf, beginning with the latest news from what looks like LIV Golf's last stand. Flushing It has reported that the league will cancel its season-ending team championship in Michigan, leaving just two events left on the schedule. Andy compares these constant updates to the "world's longest funeral procession" as the reported September 1st deadline for new investors gets closer and closer. Brendan spent the morning looking at the rest of the year's calendar and tasked Andy and PJ with making lists of the five events they're most looking forward to after this week. There's plenty of Presidents Cup excitement, but a Solheim Cup, Walker Cup, and the U.S. Am at Merion are also reasons to stay tuned in through the fall. In this discussion, Brendan submits a new strategy for the International Team that may throw the Americans off at Medinah. As for this week's schedule, the Rocket Classic puts on its grand finale at a newly-renovated Detroit Golf Club, the AIG Women's Open rounds out another major season, and the Champions Tour is hanging at Ernie's Place in Portugal. The two wrap with news of the first two Championship Series sponsorships beginning in 2028 and the very hefty price tags that come with these naming rights.

A conversation recorded at the recent SportsPro Investment Summit, bringing together two very different investors: Andrea Radrizzani, media entrepreneur and former Leeds United owner, and Alistair Brownlee OBE, double Olympic triathlon champion turned investor. The through-line is what actually makes a sports asset worth owning — and where the value really resides.Leeds United and the weight of history. Radrizzani reflects on the Bielsa era, the club's identity as the sole footballing focus of a proud Northern city, and the burden of expectation rooted in the 2004 Champions League semi-final side (then the sixth-biggest club in world football on £90m revenue). Brownlee, a lifelong Leeds fan, adds the fan's perspective — pride and connection to the city matter as much as trophies.Turnaround clubs vs. trophy assets. Radrizzani's core investment lens: the difference between a turnaround play like Leeds (high appreciation, but one relegation can wipe out value) and buying a top club, now the preserve of sovereign wealth funds and private equity. Football as a luxury/brand asset that appreciates like real estate (the PSG example), but where capital cushions mistakes that a smaller club cannot afford. Relegation as a genuine financial cliff-edge.The new generation of sport and the media-rights problem. Why Super Tri, PTO/T100 and others built on media-rights revenue have pivoted toward mass participation. Only premium rights are growing; the rest is flat or declining. The value of affluent, avid participant communities over passive viewers.Mass participation economics and the HYROX model. Buying a hardcore, high-spending community; defining who your true fans are and how much more they'll pay. The customer-acquisition-cost vs. lifetime-value case, and the adjacent-business boom (apparel, nutrition, training, sports tourism). The open question: consumers now hop between HYROX, Ironman and marathons rather than staying loyal to one ecosystem — and Ironman's acquisition strategy as a response.Owning the ecosystem. Radrizzani's thesis that value lies not in any single point but in connecting the dots across a vertical.Athletes on the cap table. What a famous name is actually worth to a company. Consumer cynicism toward over-endorsing stars (the Neymar/Ronaldo "promiscuity" problem), the premium on authenticity and genuine expertise, and the shift from passive sponsorship fees to equity stakes that drive real ROI. David Beckham cited as the model done well.Brownlee's path from athlete to investor. The solitary, self-reliant nature of individual-sport careers, and how he built an investment practice alongside competing.How much athletes should earn. The 55% wage-to-revenue sustainability benchmark (and Leeds' notorious 120%). Salary caps as what makes US leagues attractive asset classes. The IOC's position on not paying athletes directly. Why economic incentives alone fail to lure athletes to new leagues — Olympic qualification and heritage tournaments still outweigh money.Private equity moving down the value chain. PE consolidating athlete and football agencies to capture player earnings; players themselves becoming more sophisticated investors (the Courtois family-office example).Concentration, unionisation and league design. "Big get bigger" dynamics, UFC-style overpayment at the top, gig-economy pressures on the athlete pyramid, and the collective-bargaining logic of leagues vs. the pure capitalism of boxing.LIV Golf's lessons and what's next. LIV as an early iteration of these themes, the surprising strength of the incumbent (PGA Tour) and heritage/"playing for the shirt," and a look ahead to NBA Europe and how it collides with basketball's existing strongholds. Radrizzani closes on nearly buying a London basketball franchise a decade ago — and why football and media remain his real passion.Unofficial Partner is the leading podcast for the business of sport.

LIV Golf's season finale may be on the brink of cancellation—and its reported survival plan could completely reshape the league. In this episode of The Golf Podcast we break down the latest signs that LIV Golf may be nearing a major turning point, including reports that its 2026 Team Championship in Michigan could be cancelled. With the event only weeks away and no grandstands, hospitality areas, concert stage, or other major tournament infrastructure in place, we examine why the season finale now appears highly unlikely to happen. We also discuss Martin Kaymer's claim that the Michigan event has only a five percent chance of being played, along with questions surrounding the future of the Indianapolis event. From there, we explore another major setback for LIV Golf: the Asian Tour's new partnership with the PGA Tour and DP World Tour, which could weaken LIV's promotion, relegation, and world ranking pathways. We then analyze LIV Golf's reported survival plan for 2027, including fewer tournaments, smaller purses, reduced payouts, and increased equity opportunities for star players. Finally, we play Buy or Sell and debate whether LIV Golf will survive, whether the PGA Tour is stronger because of LIV, whether players matter more than tours, whether LIV golfers should be welcomed back without penalties, and whether team golf still has a future in the professional game.   Listen to This Week’s Show Download on iTunes here Listen on Spotify here Thanks to this Week’s Sponsors Titleist is committed to ensuring that every golf ball delivers superior quality and consistency.  From ball to ball, dozen to dozen we should expect our golf ball to perform exactly the same way, shot after shot.

The warning signs are piling up for LIV Golf—but is the league really finished, or is there still a path forward? In this episode of The Golf Podcast we break down the latest trouble surrounding LIV Golf, including a new $1 million lawsuit alleging unpaid licensing and usage fees, Jon Rahm's noncommittal response when asked whether he expects to play for LIV in 2027, and the growing questions about the league's long-term future. With LIV returning after a nearly two-month hiatus, we discuss whether these developments could represent the final nail in the coffin—or whether the league can still secure the investment and sponsorship needed to survive. We also examine LIV Golf's lasting impact on professional golf, from larger PGA Tour purses and greater player influence to schedule changes, international expansion, and the continued debate over team golf. Then we play “Win or Lose” to determine how LIV's disruption has affected LIV players, PGA Tour stars, the PGA Tour itself, golf fans, major championships, and tournament sponsors. Plus, we revisit Bryson DeChambeau's controversial two-stroke penalty at The Open, his public response to the ruling, and whether the incident risks undoing the image transformation he has built through recent success and his popular YouTube channel. Was the penalty justified, did Bryson handle it poorly, and will LIV Golf still exist in 2027?

Raise your hand if you saw this one coming. LIV Golf has been downright invisible for more than a month.  The last action featuring the upstart golf league took place on June 7 in Spain. The next LIV Golf event (perhaps) is expected to take place next Thursday, July 23 in the United Kingdom.  August will feature three tournaments in New York, Indianapolis, and Michigan to end the 2026 season. In case you missed it, the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) has already told the LIV Golf players that Daddy Big Bucks won't be around to lose another billion or more next year to support the league. There has been chatter during this one month LIV Golf lull that the Saudis might even pull the plug prior to next week's golf tournament in Staffordshire, England. Stay tuned! This week, the fourth major golf tournament of the year is being held at The Open Championship at Royal Birkdale (located 50 miles northwest of Liverpool, England). After two rounds, nine members of the LIV Golf contingent have made their presence known at The Open – loud and clear Leading the Open after two rounds was none other than LIV Golf's Lucas Herbert at eight under par.  Who dat, you ask?  The unassuming Herbert is an Australian golfer who participates as a member of the LIV Golf's popular “Ripper GC” team. Lucas Herbert is only 30 years old.  He won a single PGA Tour event in October, 2021 in Bermuda against a less-than-stellar field.  Herbert then moved over to LIV Golf in January, 2024 to team up with fellow Aussies Cam Smith, Marc Leishman, and Elvis (Smiley, that is). Herbert (whose caddie looks like a guitar player for ZZ Top) won the May, 2026 LIV Golf tournament in northern Virginia.  His blazing 24-under par total produced a four-shot victory. Lucas Herbert tied the Open record on Friday with a second round 8-under par 62.  He missed a three foot birdie putt on the 18th hole which would have given him a new record with a sizzling 61. He told the assembled press afterwards, “It's a pretty good problem to have – to be disappointed you shot a 62!” When the second round ended, Herbert took a one shot lead into the weekend over fellow LIV Golf star and team captain of the “Crushers” team, Bryson DeChambeau. Well, at least for a few minutes… Bryson DeChambeau rolled in a 16-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole on Friday to post a 7-under par total and take solo second place.  He was expecting to be paired with LIV Golf's Lucas Herbert on Saturday as he walked off the 18th green following Round 2. Royal & Ancient tournament officials visited with Bryson DeChambeau as soon as he walked toward the clubhouse to sign his scorecard.  They wanted to discuss a possible rules infraction which happened way back on Hole #5 of the second round Friday. Bryson DeChambeau bombed a long tee shot, but it was far off line to the right side of the fairway.  His golf ball landed in a marshy area surrounded by knee-high fescue grass.  As DeChambeau walked around and then behind the ball to line-up his second shot, he accidentally stepped onto some of the fescue behind the ball.  The rules officials deemed the temporarily depressed grass to give the golfer an unfair advantage. DeChambeau gave a passionate explanation of his version of the story.  He pleaded with the officials that the shot he played was not affected by the squished-down nearby grass.  No matter.  He was still assessed a two shot penalty to balloon his bogey 5 into a triple bogey 7 on Hole #5. Those extra two shots changed his second round total score from -7 to -5.  It dropped DeChambeau from solo second place into a three way tie for fifth place. Afterwards, he said, “Obviously disappointed with the ruling.  I don’t agree with it, but it is what it is.  This fires me up.  Onto the weekend.  Let’s get it!” It wasn't the only time that DeChambeau was in the news this week at The Open Bryson DeChambeau is a former US Amateur champion and has won two US Opens.  His unusual golfing style (extremely long drives, a set of irons which are all the same length, and a wonky upright putting stance) make him easy to notice on the golf course.  His bright smile and affable personality have added to his popularity – especially with younger golf fans. One former golfer who isn't enthralled with DeChambeau's golf style is former champion Nick Faldo. Earlier in the week, Faldo took to the microphone to say that Bryson DeChambeau had little or no chance of winning the Claret Jug trophy which goes to the winner. The six-time major champion commented, “I’d say it to his face.  DeChambeau has zero clue of strategy.”  He added, “He (DeChambeau) said last year, ‘I’m going to go out and attack the links.’  Well, I’ve never attacked the links.  You thread it…feed it down the fairway.” To his credit, Bryson DeChambeau didn’t directly respond to Nick Faldo’s barbed remarks. LIV Golf’s “Hot Temper Twins” haven’t disappointed, either What’s the first thing you think of when I say, “Terrell Hatton?” Some might say, “Who?”  Golf fans like me think of “Hot Head Hatton.” The club-flinging, four-letter-word-hurling Hatton found himself at -3 heading into Saturday’s third round. The LIV Golf competitor was paired with Scottie Scheffler (-4) and Bryson DeChambeau during the first two rounds at this year’s Open.  The cameras found Hatton on the verge of club-chunking a few different times during Thursday’s opening round. Then there’s LIV Golf’s $300 million bonus man, Jon Rahm.  Like Hatton, the intense Spaniard has a long history of temper eruptions on the golf course. Friday’s second round featured Jon Rahm (-4 for the tournament) flinging an iron which bounced off the tee box on the par-3 15th hole. Rules officials handed Rahm an official warning afterwards. The four major golf championships are (yeah, right) cracking down on bad behavior on the course.  Rules officials now have the option of issuing a warning, a two shot penalty, or, if warranted, a disqualification. With Rahm being a two-time major golf champion, he was fortunate not to be assessed a two-shot penalty after Friday’s latest temper outburst. A LIV golfer may not hoist the Claret Jug on Sunday, but they’ve stolen the show The other five LIV Golf players who made the cut at The Open were Thomas Detry, Josele Ballester, Victor Perez, Peter Uihlein, and Laurie Canter. You can say a lot about LIV Golf, but several of the nine players who made the cut at this year’s Open Championship have definitely spiced-up this week’s competition. A perilous financial future lies ahead for LIV Golf at the end of August (assuming they are still in business at that point). The economics of the league are not sustainable.  Saudi’s fat wallet (now more than $5 billion lighter) will be unavailable soon after enduring four years of massive losses.  Defections by Brooks Koepka and Patrick Reed this season have also hurt LIV Golf.   Don’t forget that Bryson DeChambeau’s contract expires at the end of 2026. All signs point to a rough landing ahead for LIV Golf. Let’s enjoy their contingent of talented and spicy golfers this weekend at The Open – while we still have time.

YouTube golf has turned a traditionally closed, formal sport into something that can feel like you are riding in the cart with friends and that shift has fans fired up on both sides. We stage a full debate on whether creator golf has made the game better or whether it has created a new kind of chaos that shows up as slow pace, wrecked greens, and crowds that treat tour events like a comment section. If you care about golf culture, golf etiquette, and where golf media is headed, this one gets real fast. We dig into the big inflection points: the COVID golf boom, the rise of channels like Good Good and Bob Does Sports, and how Tiger vs Phil in The Match proved personality-driven golf could pull massive attention. We also talk about LIV Golf as a disruptor that pushed the PGA Tour to change purses and incentives, even while many fans still find LIV's broadcast and team identity confusing. Along the way we argue about what “accessible” really means, why some people consume golf content in the background, and whether the PGA should embrace creators with smarter events instead of tighter filming rules. Then we go straight at Bryson DeChambeau: has YouTube made him more likable, more human, and better for the game or is it just a new PR engine that fuels fanboy culture while results fluctuate? We close with the only question that really matters for golf's future: twenty years from now, will Tiger Woods still be the defining force or will a generation of creators reshape the sport even more?

Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme are back from a very #America250 Fourth of July weekend to break down a wild finish at the John Deere Classic, as Chris Gotterup's Sunday 62 was good enough to earn a THIRD win on the PGA TOUR this season. They dig into Gotterup's remarkable year (four wins in the last 365 days, matched only by Scottie Scheffler), his Rutgers-to-Oklahoma journey, and why he might be the most well-rounded young American on tour. Plus: Max Homa's solo-second week with new caddie John Ellis, what the 2028 Championship Series/Challenger Series restructuring means for events like John Deere, Rory McIlroy's 15-event exemption situation, a loaded Scottish Open field with some LIV Golf headliners in Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton, and the debate around golf content creators skipping the mini-tour grind.Before all that: Smylie's neck gives out mid-round playing with Steven Spieth, and Charlie discovers the secret to fixing his golf game — playing with 12 clubs.Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and follow us on socials @thesmylieshow!0:00 Intro & 4th of July weekend catch-up2:14 Smylie's neck injury 6:07 Charlie's golf slump — fixed by carrying 12 clubs10:18 Chris Gotterup's final-round 62 wins the John Deere Classic13:11 Why Gotterup is one of the next great young Americans17:12 Gotterup's shot-shaping 26:10 Max Homa's runner-up week and the John Ellis caddie effect30:17 The John Deere Classic's future under the 2028 tour restructuring40:03 Gotterup's emotional win and golf's need for storylines43:08 Rory McIlroy's 15-event exemption, explained46:24 Scottish Open preview: Rahm, Hatton & LIV golfers in the field52:26 UK heat wave and Open Championship conditions53:18 Brad Dalke's DP World Tour week and the YouTube-vs-grind debate58:59 Sign-off & what's coming this week#golf #pgatour #golfrecap #chrisgotterup #smylieshow
