Rumors about LIV Golf shutting down are spreading like wildfire. Yasir Al-Rumayyan, the Governor of the PIF, the sovereign wealth fund that bankrolls LIV Golf, has called an emergency meeting in Manhattan to discuss the future of the league. Some have even suggested that there might be an announcement of a merger. It’s uncertain what will really happen. But when the Fireballs GC captain addressed the issue, his response suggested a firm belief in the league’s longevity.

“No, we have not heard anything. That is not what Yasir already told us at the beginning of the season. He is behind us. They have a project of many years,” Sergio Garcia said during the 2026 LIV Golf Mexico press meet.
Garcia’s reply suggests he, too, is oblivious to the situation at LIV Golf headquarters. Like other players, he and his team are preparing for LIV Golf Mexico 2026 at Club de Golf Chapultepec.
The Telegraph had already reported that players were unaware of the emergency meeting’s agenda, a point later confirmed by another LIV golfer
“I’ll be honest. None of the players have heard anything. It’s hopefully a merger. Everyone gathers at Augusta, don’t they?” one of the LIV Golf pros told the reporters.
A merger announcement is possible. But given how the LIV Golf players played at Augusta National, the league might not attract enough interest to secure a merger. Besides, the DP World Tour has said that if this happens, it will take them some time to finalize the terms.

While the reason for the emergency meeting remains a mystery, Club de Golf Chapultepec has confirmed that the tee times for LIV Golf Mexico 2026 are out.
Will Sergio Garcia and LIV Golf see any major changes before the event in Mexico tees off?
Rich Lerner of Golf Channel confirmed the news: “LIV players are ‘awaiting their fate’ and may learn more this afternoon. Tee times have been released for LIV Mexico as reports emerge that operations are ‘business as usual’ so far today, following a report that LIV execs met for an emergency meeting in NYC.”
Even the players seem to be on the edge of their seats about the situation. They aren’t used to being kept in the dark, especially those who are also shareholders in the league and not just part of the roster.
Per rumors, LIV is expected to release an announcement by mid-afternoon today. Until then, all Sergio Garcia and everyone else can do is wait.
