LIV Golf Becomes Joke Of The Town as PGA Tour Turns Down $1.5B Offer, Leaving Donald Trump’s Reunification Hopes on Hold

LIV Golf’s credibility has taken another hit! It has been reported that the PGA Tour replied to the PIF on Monday and deemed that an arrangement where LIV would continue to operate in the way it is now is unacceptable. As a result, the Tour has rejected a $1.5 billion investment in PGA Tour Enterprises. The $1.5bn was planned to match identical investment from the US-based Strategic Sports Group.

As LIV hosted its Miami event at Trump National Doral, former President Donald Trump, ever the showman, arrived in style and shared dinner with players, expressing his wish for a merger. “I hope it all works out,” he told AP, rooting for unity.

But fans aren’t buying it. With LIV’s future still uncertain and little clarity on how it would fit into a unified golf ecosystem, social media buzzed with mockery. Many see LIV as a sinking ship, desperate for relevance. Even Trump’s endorsement couldn’t soften the blow of Monahan’s cold shoulder. For now, LIV remains the outsider, and fans aren’t holding back their laughter—or their skepticism.

One fan commented, “LIV product is not good enough to have negotiating leverage.”

Another wrote, “The PGAT doesn’t need those clowns, LIV and the players on LIV are irrelevant and bring zero value.”
