Senior executives from LIV Golf have been urgently called to a crisis meeting in New York amid growing speculation a major announcement regarding the Saudi-backed circuit is imminent.Rumours swept through social media on Tuesday evening, with Monday Q Info, a prominent golf account on X run by Ryan French with nearly 200,000 followers, claiming multiple sources had indicated "a bombshell announcement on LIV's future is imminent".French subsequently said during an X Spaces discussion trusted contacts had informed him the league was "shutting down".The account cryptically added: "We don't give out gambling advice but if you're a prediction market type person I would bet the under of whatever they have posted."TRENDINGStoriesVideosYour SayLIV Golf did not immediately respond to requests for comment.For the first time since the breakaway league launched four years ago, the media centre remained shut on Tuesday as journalists gathered for the 22million Mexico tournament scheduled to begin on Thursday.Reporters were informed of the closure as they waited to board shuttle buses to the press headquarters, although later explanations cited a faulty power board as the cause.Not a single LIV executive was present at Club de Golf Chapultepec in Mexico City, the venue hosting the circuit's sixth event of the season.Instead, all senior figures had been summoned to what was described as "an emergency summit" in Manhattan, according to The Telegraph.The purpose of the gathering has not been disclosed.Players competing in Mexico have insisted they remain unaware of any significant developments regarding their futures."I'll be honest. None of the players have heard anything. It's hopefully a merger. Everyone gathers at Augusta don't they?" one golfer said.LATEST SPORT NEWSManchester United star receives ban for swearing at referee as full punishment revealedBritish tennis icon Jamie Murray announces retirement after 36 years in heartfelt statementReal Madrid icon dies as statement sparks tributes for 'one of greatest legends in world'An agent representing one of the circuit's three biggest names told the Daily Mail: "I know as much as you."Another agent for a key player acknowledged widespread bewilderment but suggested this week's tournament would proceed as planned.Despite the uncertainty, the Pro Am commenced today, with Sergio Garcia's Fireballs GC team also playing as scheduled without addressing the speculation.Sources from the DP World Tour were emphatic the emergency meeting had no connection to Wentworth or any potential discussions with the European circuit.The turmoil follows a challenging period for the Saudi-funded venture, during which high-profile departures have eroded its star power.Brooks Koepka, a five-time major champion who reportedly received around $100million to join, walked away from his final year of contract before Christmas and returned to the PGA Tour.Patrick Reed departed in January after his deal expired, opting to compete on the DP World Tour.Television ratings have continued to underwhelm, while LIV players struggled at last week's Masters, where only Tyrrell Hatton managed a top-10 finish and Bryson DeChambeau missed the cut entirely.The developments coincide with the Saudi Public Investment Fund approving a new 2026-2030 strategy emphasising "sustainable value, maximising impact, increasing investment efficiency" and enhanced governance standards.Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
