Golf Channel so kindly compiled this timeline of LIV Golf’s enduring troubles. Trey Wingo can sum it up for you: “This is the end.”
Wingo said that on this Straight Facts Homie! podcast episode. The former ESPN icon would love for LIV Golf CEO Scott O’Neil to confirm or deny Wingo’s reporting, but Wingo cannot get ahold of O’Neil.
“I’ve gotten this in the comments, even though it’s not true: ‘You’re just a shill for the PGA Tour,'” Wingo said on his podcast this week. “Nah, man. Everything we said was accurate. Like, literally, everything we said along the way was accurate.”
We wanted LIV’s side. Scott O’Neil agreed to give it to us.
Then the communication stopped.
Here’s exactly what happened.

“Scott O’Neil is someone that we have reached out to on numerous occasions,” Wingo added, alongside a graphic showing the 10 separate instances in detail. “We reached out in December of 2025 to Scott and the LIV PR team. December of 2025 through March of 2026, we continued to reach out to Scott and the PR team for months, as our LIV coverage — and what was going on with LIV Golf — ramped up.
“In April of 2026, we had a direct email to Scott’s personal email. From April 15 through July 30, over a three-and-a-half-month period, we had no response. Then, on July 30, 2026, Scott O’Neil responded to us here at The Wingo Network and the Straight Facts Homie! podcast and invited us to the Bedminster event for LIV in New York.”
Wingo explained that he and his team declined O’Neil’s invite because they had prior engagements for his Inside Football podcast. Afterward, O’Neil said he’d “love” for Wingo to come to LIV Golf Indianapolis, and all seemed sweet.
“The PR team responded once, and then removed Scott from the thread on the email, and we have had six follow-up attempts with the LIV PR folks to see if we could nail down that situation,” Wingo said.
You might guess what happened next.
“We have gotten zero responses,” Wingo said, adding, “We have tried to reach out on numerous occasions. We did finally get some communication from Scott, and he was very courteous and gracious, and we appreciated that. Then, he tried to set something up, and he looped in his PR team, and the PR team — they have ghosted as hard as anyone can ghost.
Wingo concluded that he has “no idea” if he and his team will ever hear from O’Neil or LIV Golf PR again.
“In all likelihood, it looks like the Indianapolis event is going to be the last one, and they have some really tough questions to answer.”
Wingo previously shared his timeline chasing down O’Neil and his perspective on LIV Golf’s demise while appearing on the Awful Announcing Podcast in April.
