Welcome back to PGA Flash — your home for complete, unfiltered professional golf news, player contract breakdowns, tour governance, and golf business analysis.
In today’s video, we explore the reported evacuation inside LIV Golf as seven major champions move to terminate contracts or seek exits amid a worsening cash crisis. We break down the Saudi Public Investment Fund’s (PIF) decision to halt funding, CEO Scott O’Neil’s emergency search for capital, the cancellation of the $40M Team Championship in Michigan, and the legal concept of material breach allowing players to walk away.
We analyze individual exit strategies and contract statuses for Jon Rahm ($150M owed), Brooks Koepka’s early return via the Returning Member Program, Patrick Reed’s DP World/Asian Tour qualification grind, Phil Mickelson’s silence, Martin Kaymer’s public admissions, Dustin Johnson’s arbitration talks, and Bryson DeChambeau’s contract expiration.

But the question is how the PGA will handle it: Will they afford the luxury of putting obstacles in the way of those stars' return, or will they find a way to accept them—given that those players will clearly remain a major draw for revitalizing the PGA? Just imagine those stars back in the PGA; it would be a television sensation.
I said this was all a ruse when it kicked off. GOLF CLUB = 33. if you don't know about the 33 look it up.
They should be required to play severalyears on mini tour first
