The player commitment deadline for LIV Golf has been pushed back by two weeks, now set for late October. BC Partners, the private-equity firm involved in the restructuring, has confirmed an initial investment of $4 million, with a potential additional commitment of $300 million. The move comes as LIV Golf continues its Chapter 11 bankruptcy process, which could allow players to pursue opportunities outside the league. Significant players like Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau have yet to declare their futures with LIV, while Sergio Garcia seeks to end his contract to evaluate his options. The restructuring aims to reposition LIV ahead of the 2027 season.
