What next for LIV Golf's star players, and its fight for survival?

The DP World Tour has said it has had a "high volume" of interest from LIV Golf players and is exploring ways to accommodate those who leave the breakaway league.

It comes as LIV Golf filed for bankruptcy protection in the US on Tuesday , as it attempts to restructure for a "new era" next year.

LIV owes at least $45m (£33m) to 14 current and former players.

Its golfers, including star names like Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm, can now opt to leave, rather than being obliged to see out their contracts in LIV 2.0 which is aiming to launch next year.

But, given all the acrimony since LIV's launch in 2021 and subsequent outlay of $5bn (£3.7bn) split the sport, it may not be easy to return to the PGA Tour and DP World Tour.

A spokesperson for the DP World Tour said: "Given the high volume of inbound interest and enquiries we have received in recent weeks, we are exploring the terms on which we are willing to accommodate players, provided they are free from third-party contractual restrictions and are willing to abide by our membership regulations.

"Our tournament committee has approved the process we intend to follow and we expect further enquiries in the days ahead."

Court documents show LIV estimates its assets at $100m-$500m (£74m-£370m) and its liabilities at between $500m and $1bn (£370m-£739m).
