LONDON: LIV Golf announced on Friday it had secured a multi-year exclusive broadcast deal with streaming site DAZN to show its events outside the United States.
The Saudi-backed breakaway circuit had initially struggled for TV deals during its inaugural season in 2022, briefly showing tournaments for free on YouTube.
But LIV had also already agreed a deal with Fox Sports to show its 2025 season in the US.
DAZN will broadcast the LIV tour live in 鈥渕ore than 200 markets,鈥� including Canada, Germany, France, Italy and Japan.
鈥淒AZN鈥檚 cutting-edge technology and unparalleled scale give LIV Golf a significant platform to engage a truly global audience,鈥� said LIV Golf CEO Scott O鈥橬eil.
British streaming service DAZN was also recently awarded the exclusive global rights for FIFA鈥檚 expanded Club World Cup to be held in the US in June and July.
LIV Golf has been in talks with the PGA Tour over a possible deal to reunite the game since 2023.
PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan said earlier this week that US President Donald Trump鈥檚 intervention in negotiations had 鈥渟ignificantly bolstered鈥� hopes of an agreement, but admitted some hurdles remain.
