South Australian treasurer Tom Koutsantonis stated that LIV Golf Adelaide is "looking unlikely" to go ahead in 2027. His remarks follow legal action by the event's interim host venue, Kooyonga Golf Club, which filed a motion in US bankruptcy court demanding confirmation by November 6 on whether the tournament will take place and who will participate.

LIV Golf CEO Scott O'Neil faces multiple deadlines, including a proposed investment deal with BC Partners that hinges on securing player commitments by October 13.
