LIV Golf Postpones New Orleans Event as Louisiana Demands $1.2 Million Back

The LIV Golf tournament scheduled for Louisiana in June has been postponed, state officials announced Tuesday. The event was set to take place from June 25 to 28. Louisiana now expects LIV Golf to return $1.2 million in incentive funds linked to the event. The postponement follows reports that the Saudi-backed breakaway circuit is struggling to secure its long-term funding. The news comes less than two weeks after LIV Golf CEO Scott O’Neil stated that the 2026 season would proceed as planned.
