Ryder Cup legend claims LIV Golf was always 'a non-starter' despite fresh investment talks

Ryder Cup legend Tony Jacklin, 82, has stated he would not be sorry to see LIV Golf disappear, calling it 'a non-starter' despite fresh investment talks. Private investment firm BC Partners is reportedly leading discussions on a financing package to keep a restructured LIV Golf League running from 2027, after the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) confirmed it would stop funding the league after this season. Key challenges in any new deal include honoring guaranteed player contracts previously funded by PIF and retaining enough top stars to keep the league commercially viable.
