An opinion column by Nancy Armour in USA TODAY Sports, published on Yahoo Sports on November 5, 2026, declares that the LIV Golf league is effectively dead and asserts that the golfers who joined the Saudi-backed circuit have left a lasting stain on their careers.
The piece argues that the upstart league's demise was inevitable and criticizes players who accepted large financial incentives to defect from the PGA Tour, suggesting their legacy has been permanently damaged.
