An official announcement is expected on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">The move comes after LIV golfer Martin Kaymer indicated last week that there was a \u201cfive per-cent chance\u201d that the event would take place after a LIV captains\u2019 meeting in England.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">\u201cI know that [pentultimate event] Indianapolis most likely is happening,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.todays-golfer.com\/news-and-events\/tour-news\/liv-golf-event-cancelled-martin-kaymer\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.todays-golfer.com\/news-and-events\/tour-news\/liv-golf-event-cancelled-martin-kaymer\/\">Kaymer told Today\u2019s Golfer<\/a>. \u201cThere was a conversation yesterday. Michigan, highly unlikely. So basically, what we already knew. That\u2019s why I think it became a captains\u2019 meeting and not a players\u2019 meeting, because they couldn\u2019t give us much more than we had before.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.detroitnews.com\/story\/sports\/golf\/2026\/07\/23\/liv-golf-michigan-tournament-in-doubt-zero-buildout-at-the-cardinal-saint-johns-resort\/91017862007\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.detroitnews.com\/story\/sports\/golf\/2026\/07\/23\/liv-golf-michigan-tournament-in-doubt-zero-buildout-at-the-cardinal-saint-johns-resort\/91017862007\/\">The Detroit News\u2019 Tony Paul reported on Tuesday<\/a> that there had been no infrastructure buildout at The Cardinal at Saint John\u2019s Resort, the course that was set to host the tournament. Paul notes that such an undertaking ahead of a tournament normally takes months.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">The CEO of the organization that oversees the course, Kevin Doyle, told the outlet that nothing has changed on their end.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">\u201cNothing new right now,\u201d Doyle told The News. \u201cLIV\u2019s planning is ongoing and the Saint John\u2019s team continues to work closely with them on it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Removing Michigan from the schedule leaves the tour with two events remaining on the season. LIV is set to play at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster on Aug. 6 before wrapping up the season with a tournament beginning on Aug. 20 at The Club at Chatham Hills in Westfield, IN.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">The tour\u2019s backer, Saudi Arabia\u2019s Public Investment Fund, has indicated that it will pull its funding after this season, leaving LIV\u2019s future very much up in the air. Hobbs reported last week that a number of players look set to exit the tour at season\u2019s end regardless of its future prospects. LIV has already seen the high-profile defections of Brooks Koepka and Patrick Reed earlier this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With its future murky, the 2026 LIV Golf season appears to ending sooner than planned.
