Judge approves LIV Golf and BC Partners agreement in bankruptcy case
Summary

A bankruptcy judge has approved the agreement between LIV Golf and BC Partners during a hearing on October 14, 2026. The agreement provides $300 million in loans and investments, which is essential for the future of LIV Golf 2.0 after losing previous support from the Saudi Public Investment Fund. The league is restructuring, with players expected to receive equity and signing bonuses. However, the judge clarified that this approval does not guarantee the final approval of the overall restructuring plan. It comes amid ongoing concerns regarding the participation of LIV players in the DP World Tour, as players face a looming deadline to commit to LIV Golf 2.0 by October 25, 2026, unless extended by BC Partners.
