Live Golf - A New Injection of Money

Live Golf launched in October 2021 with financial backing from the Saudi Arabian Sovereign Wealth Fund. Since then, roughly 70 players have signed on to be part of the Live Tour. Between prize money and signing bonuses, it's rumored that Live has transferred a billion dollars or more to the players in the very first year. And while the generous payout's major golfers very happy, it made a whole lot of other people really unhappy.
