Ever since the inception of LIV Golf, there has been one constant concern that surrounded the league, i.e. about survivability. With limited partnership and revenue generation, keeping up with the legacy creator, the PGA Tour seemed monumental. Until now, the events on the tour have failed to generate an amount equaling to the prize pot.

With huge contracts for the players and limited revenue. The doom of the league was predicted very soon. However, in the past year, the Saudi-backed league left no stone unturned with their new strategy for revenue generation. Previously, the league got many sponsors for its events as well as for its teams.

Now, to start with the 2025 season, the prospect of a new deal shared by the league has shown a great sign of survival. The updates about the deal came in fresh by a post shared on Instagram from the ‘golf_gods’ account. The post shared a photo by Bryson DeChambeau, with a headline, “LIV Golf to land major USA TV deal as pressure ramps up on the PGA Tour agreement.”

Sharing further details about the deal in the caption, it wrote, “LIV Golf is on the brink of at last achieving a primary aim by signing with one of the main United States TV stations before the league’s resumption starts next month.” While it seems the major concern for the league can be subsided after this deal. Additionally, sharing the name of the TV station, the caption shared further, “Sources have revealed the Saudi-backed circuit is in the “final stages” of securing a deal with Fox, one of America’s ‘Big Four’ networks.”

Fans of the PIF league are celebrating this breaking news. However, surprisingly, when asked in the caption, “Will you watch more of LIV if it was on one of the major TV networks?” The fans destroyed the hopes of the league with their brutal response to the post.

Fans reaction to the latest update of LIV Golf

With the significant move towards revenue generation and offering the best experience to the fans through live broadcasting on TV. Fans are not quite impressed with the move and have thrashed the latest news of the TV broadcast deal shared on Instagram.

Sharing thoughts one fan wrote, “It’s not about access, the product’s not great.” Fans are not interested in the deal as they dislike the league in general. Another fan commenting on the same lines noted, “Tv deal or none, their product is not compelling. To each their own but idc about the payout, there’s just only a handful of actual elite golfers 🤷‍♂️.”

Other users also joined in writing, “I would never watch LIV” and “Liv sucks to watch.” It seems fans do not like the format of LIV Golf in comparison to the PGA Tour. Additionally, LIV only has a handful of events when compared to the PGA. Even though fans disliked the streaming experience of the PGA Tour, they are still choosing the PGAT over the LIV Golf.

Joining the discussion, one curious fan commented, “I wonder what happened to the “deal” that was supposed to be in the works between the two?” Watching the two leagues separately isn’t what the golf world expected. Now, with the merger deal in talks for more than a year, people are curious about the timeline and are hopeful of a development shortly.

Apart from the fans disliking the deal, there are other people who love it. One of the fans commented with joy at the news, “Hell yeh.” While another wrote, “Get ready. Freeform really stepping up here.” This goes to show that LIV, even though small, does attract an audience, and for those fans, it is definitely big news.
