LIV Golf has officially relocated its Team Championship from Michigan to Indianapolis, abandoning the August finale originally planned for the breakaway circuit’s host course. The decision follows weeks of uncertainty regarding whether the season-ending event would proceed as planned. Indianapolis will now host the tournament from August 20-23 as the final competition of the 2026 season.
The rescheduling marks the second cancellation on LIV’s 2026 calendar, following the scrapping of LIV New Orleans in June. The Cardinal at Saint John’s in Michigan was slated to host the championship, which carried a $40 million purse, but construction had not commenced before the cancellation was announced. Speculation intensified in July when Cleeks team captain Martin Kaymer, a former major champion, described the Michigan event as “highly unlikely” to proceed as scheduled.
LIV Golf CEO Scott O’Neil announced that a new investor has been secured to fund the league’s operations through 2027 and beyond, replacing the Saudi Public Investment Fund, which committed in April to support only through the 2026 season. The unnamed investor will anchor a restructured business model that makes players majority equity holders—a first among major global sports leagues, O’Neil stated.
The planned 2027 LIV schedule is expected to feature 10 events: five in the United States and five internationally. O’Neil said the league aims to finalize the new investor transaction in September, though specifics about the investor and future player roster remain undisclosed.
