January 14, 2026
Thomas Detry is joining LIV Golf. Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm aren’t going anywhere. Those were a few of the news items that have emerged from a preview week for LIV Golf. It wrapped up Wednesday in South Florida with CEO Scott O’Neil says he harbors no ill will toward Brooks Koepka for leaving and hopes the Official World Golf Ranking will decide whether to include LIV before the season starts Feb. 4. O’Neil also says the total prize money will go up $5 million to $30 million. That includes team payouts. Two of the team names are changing for 2026.
