The move signals a period of financial instability for the circuit, which has been locked in a high-stakes battle for dominance within the professional golf landscape. By seeking court protection, the league aims to restructure its obligations while searching for fresh investors to replace the dwindling liquidity that previously fueled its rapid expansion.
