About this episode
Sean Farrington discusses the potential collapse of LIV Golf and its implications amidst the energy crisis and global financial meetings.
Sean Farrington discusses reports that LIV Golf is on the verge of collapse. The breakaway tour - heavily backed by Saudi Arabia's Sovereign Wealth Fund - split the game in two when it launched in 2022. Also - we hear from the governor of the Bank of England who's in Washington alongside the world's leaders in finance at the Spring meeting of the IMF and World Bank. Earlier this week, the IMF singled out the UK as one of the countries set to suffer a “large negative effect” from the energy crisis caused by the war in the Middle East.
