Overview

• LIV Golf confirmed to The Detroit News that it revoked Bill Hobson’s media credential for this week’s Team Championship in Plymouth, Michigan, offering him standard grounds passes instead.
• According to Hobson, league officials pressed him to remove questions about Saudi Public Investment Fund financing and former CEO Greg Norman from his Pat Perez podcast, and he declined.
• Mediaite reports Hobson said LIV representatives called within minutes of the interview and escalated their requests over two days, despite no prior topic restrictions being set.
• The league issued a statement saying it values open and honest dialogue and will work with journalists who approach interviews with fairness, integrity, and respect.
• A crew member from The Scratch Golf Show separately alleges his expected pass was denied after he criticized Patrick Reed, a claim reported as his account and not confirmed by LIV.
