Overview
- LIV CEO Scott O’Neil describes OWGR talks as constructive after a renewed application, with the league committed to 72-hole events starting in 2026.
- O’Neil says he communicates regularly with PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp but confirms the parties are not in serious negotiations.
- Sports Business Journal reports, citing multiple golf sources, that Brooks Koepka may not play LIV’s 2026 season despite being under contract.
- Asked about Koepka, O’Neil offered no specifics and said there have been no player announcements, adding that Koepka “is signed for 2026.”
- If Koepka sits out, he would retain entry to all four majors in 2026 and could play DP World Tour events, as The Times also reports LIV will stop covering DPWT fines on Dec. 31.
