LIV Golf’s transfer window has been open for nearly three weeks – and golf fans are all saying the same thing about the mid-season trading period.
The one-month window, commencing on May 8, facilitates the exchange of players between competing teams, while ensuring that no alterations are made to their existing contracts.
Moreover, individuals who are in the last year of their current contract have the opportunity to discuss fresh conditions with their present organizations.
Nevertheless, up until now, there has been no involvement in talks regarding a potential exchange.
Golf fans slam LIV Golf’s transfer window
Golf enthusiasts from all corners of the globe have expressed similar concerns regarding LIV Golf’s transfer window, often questioning, “Does anyone truly pay attention?” This sentiment is widely shared, as the franchise is still in its early days and the teams have yet to establish a devoted fanbase that avidly follows transfer updates.
Flushing It, a well-known golf account, expressed their opinion stating that the transfer window for team trades in the LIV league has been open for over two weeks, yet there have been no moves or rumors. They believe that if the league wants to maintain the value of the team concept and franchise model, there should be more excitement and activity. According to them, the current rollout is inadequate.
The LIV “transfer window” for team trades has been open for more than 2 weeks and there’s been zero moves and no rumours. If the team concept and franchise model is going to be the valuable asset of the league, then there needs to be more juice. This current role out is not good. https://t.co/y7tqSxUkd3

Joseph Michael concluded by stating that yet another failure by Liv has been conveniently swept under the rug, as if it had never been announced prior to the PGA Championship. The so-called “transfer” window for Liv has proven to be ineffective in facilitating any trades between teams during the two weeks it has been active. Were you anticipating a significant deal? Well, it seems that Club 54’s attempt to grab attention has backfired, leading to a revolt among their players.
Another Liv failure has been pushed into a corner, to be forgotten about, or just for all to pretend it was not announced before the PGA Championship, remember?
The LIV “transfer” window has failed to produce a trade between teams in the two weeks that the market has been open.…— Joseph Michael (@ma5660) May 23, 2024
Not the first time LIV Golf decisions have come under the spotlight
Currently, LIV is struggling to escape the fury of fan backlash.
Following the announcement of their team championship venue in September, the golfing community was swift to point out that the event at Maridoe Golf Club would overlap with the football season and the Dallas Cowboys’ home game against the Baltimore Ravens.
Bolingbrook Golf Club faced criticism from fans who deemed it an inadequate venue for the end-of-season event, mirroring the sentiment expressed towards the league as a whole.
The global game is witnessing the breakaway league’s struggle to establish itself, although there have been notable achievements, such as the successful LIV Golf Adelaide tournament.
Moving forward, we need smarter decision-making and innovative ideas. The transfer window seemed hasty and poorly planned from the beginning.
