Poulter and Hatton Exit LIV Golf as Star Exodus Accelerates Ahead of 2027 Deadline

Ian Poulter and Tyrrell Hatton have confirmed they will not join the restructured LIV Golf 2.0, joining a growing list of high-profile departures. The breakaway tour, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in September after Saudi Arabia withdrew over $5 billion in funding, faces an October 25 commitment deadline. While only four players have publicly pledged to continue, the league is attempting to secure $300 million in financing from BC Partners Credit to launch a player-owned model in 2027.
