A source with knowledge of BC's operations told Front Office Sports \"this version is not going to be signed,\" ending a restructuring plan that was meant to pull the league out of Chapter 11 bankruptcy.\n\nThe deal would have made BC Partners' financing the centerpiece of a reorganized \"LIV 2.0,\" with players holding majority equity while BC took a stake of nearly half the new league. But the arrangement depended on enough players signing on. BC had set an Oct. 25 deadline for a \"requisite number of players\" to commit, and the Saudi PIF, LIV's largest creditor, had its own Oct. 30 deadline for deciding whether the league would continue or wind down. Both deadlines came and went with no announcement.\n\nReports now suggest BC Partners concluded LIV would not have enough players to function as a viable tour, and walked away from the funding. Without that financing, LIV Golf is reportedly headed toward liquidation, with its future now in serious doubt just as the bankruptcy process was supposed to be settling its fate.","published_at":"2026-11-04T22:35:37.438718+00:00","source_count":6,"written_from":[{"outlet":"Front Office Sports","publisher":"Front Office Sports","title":"LIV Golf’s $300M BC Partners Credit Deal Is Off","url":"https://frontofficesports.com/article/liv-golfs-300m-bc-partners-credit-deal-is-off/"},{"outlet":"CBS Sports","publisher":"CBS Sports","title":"LIV Golf shutdown imminent?
