LIV Golf drops “Any Shot, Any Time” streaming feature amid funding

LIV Golf announced that its “Any Shot, Any Time” streaming option will no longer be available for the rest of the 2026 season, a move described as a “strategic decision” while the league evaluates its future without Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund support [1]. The feature, which let subscribers watch every shot from any player live, cost $59.99 for the season or $8.99 per event, and the league said it will process refunds for affected customers [2].

Key takeaways

• The “Any Shot, Any Time” service is being discontinued for the remaining five events of the season [1].
• Subscribers paid $59.99 for a season pass or $8.99 per tournament; refunds are being arranged [2].
• The technology provider, Mobii, reportedly has not been paid for months, which may have led to the service’s termination [1].
• LIV Golf’s main benefactor, Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, announced it will cease funding after this season, creating financial uncertainty for the league [1].
• League executives are exploring reduced tournament schedules, new investors, and even possible bankruptcy filings as they plan the league’s next steps [3].

Streaming feature removed as league faces funding gap

The “Any Shot, Any Time” platform was introduced two years ago to give fans a unique, shot‑by‑shot view of every player, a capability not offered by the Masters app and only partially mirrored by the PGA Tour’s Players Championship coverage [1]. At the South Korea event, which began Thursday, the service was pulled, and LIV Golf confirmed that it will not return for the remaining five regular‑season tournaments, including the upcoming Spain stop [1]. A source told Sports Illustrated that Mobii, the company behind the streaming technology, has not received payment for several months, though it is unclear whether Mobii or LIV initiated the discontinuation [1].

The financial backdrop is stark: the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia, which has poured roughly $5 billion into LIV Golf, announced last month that it will stop its contributions after the current season [1]. While the PIF pledged some funding for the remainder of the year, the exact level remains uncertain, prompting league CEO Scott O’Neil to promise a thorough business review that could involve cutting tournaments, prize money, or seeking new investors [1].

Players and executives weigh the league’s future

Players on the field in Korea, including Bryson DeChambeau, Charles Howell III, and Scott Vincent, continued their competition despite the streaming cut, with DeChambeau tied for the lead after a 66‑shot round [1]. In separate interviews, DeChambeau expressed optimism that a “team‑golf” model could sustain the league, noting that investors are being pitched a new business plan focused on franchise equity [3]. Fellow veteran Sergio García echoed a similar sentiment, saying he is confident the league will continue, though it will “look different” and that the focus now is on how the product evolves rather than whether it survives [3].
