Lawsuit Over Unpaid Invoices
Mobii Systems Group Ltd., a Canadian-based technology company that supplied LIV Golf’s “Any Shot, Any Time” live-broadcast features, filed a complaint in U.S. District Court in Miami on Friday. The suit seeks $1.13 million, comprising an $820,600 licensing fee, a $104,500 usage fee for the 2026 season, and $209,531 in alleged lost revenue for the six remaining 2026 events after LIV allegedly breached its two-year contract, which runs through Dec. 31, 2026. The complaint states that LIV paid all fees for the 2025 season but failed to meet the 2026 obligations.
Contract Background and Financial Context
The agreement between LIV Golf and Mobii was signed in 2024 for two years. In April, Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund— which had invested more than $5 billion since LIV’s 2022 launch— announced it would cease funding the tour. LIV CEO Scott O’Neil is reportedly seeking $300 million in new capital to sustain operations beyond the current season. The lawsuit arrives amid other legal challenges, including separate suits by the World Golf Group and Premier Golf League seeking $210 million to $630 million in damages.
Official Statements & Responses
LIV senior vice president of technology Nick Connor emailed Mobii on May 25, confirming that LIV would stop using the “Any Shot, Any Time” technology for the South Korea event (May 28-31) and the five subsequent tournaments. He characterized the decision as a review of LIV’s “business model, our partnerships and our cost structure,” and said the league would not continue the product while evaluating those factors.
