LIV Golf faces a seriously difficult task if they are to get the new version of their league off the ground.

Numerous high-profile players have already announced their decisions to leave LIV Golf, including Jon Rahm, Louis Oosthuizen and Cam Smith.

Since Saudi Arabia’s PIF withdrew their funding from LIV at the end of the 2026 season, it has become apparent that money was the sole factor behind almost every single player’s decision to join the league in the first place.

Ian Poulter announced his exit from LIV Golf on Friday as well, as the league’s problems continued to mount.

It’s very clear that even if LIV Golf does continue in 2027, the landscape will be significantly different moving forward.

However, things got even worse on Friday afternoon as two more players’ exits from the league were confirmed.

As the famous old saying goes: when it rains, it pours.

Branden Grace and Lucas Herbert announce decisions to leave LIV Golf

Tyrrell Hatton is the latest big-name player to call time on his LIV Golf career.

He confirmed the new via his Instagram account on Friday evening, while suggesting how excited he is for what the future may hold for him.

The Englishman is one of the best players in the world, so his exit will obviously be a huge blow for the league.

Meanwhile, South African Branden Grace and Australian Lucas Herbert have also opted out of carrying on with LIV 2.0.

Meanwhile, Herbert confirmed his decision to part ways with high profile X account Flushing It.

The super-talented Australian will now focus his attention on securing his PGA Tour card over the next year or so.

The Australian has huge potential and will undoubtedly forge a successful career for himself, whichever tour that may be.

Meanwhile, Grace is only 38 himself, so he still has plenty of golf left ahead of him as well.

LIV Golf’s hopes of having any kind of future may well depend on Bryson Dechambeau now. If the two-time US Open champion decides to leave the league it could well be curtains for them.
