Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund is reportedly preparing to step back from its backing of LIV Golf, the breakaway tour that upended professional golf when it launched. Saudi officials have said the kingdom is re-evaluating its priorities amid mounting financial pressures, including the enormous cost of hosting the 2034 FIFA World Cup. The potential withdrawal could reshape the landscape of professional golf once again, just as the sport has been grappling with how to integrate — or compete with — the Saudi-backed circuit.
