LIVGolfhas joined a handful of its players in their antitrust lawsuit against the PGA Tour, according to an amended complaint that showed fourgolfers have now removed their names.

According to the amended complaint filed on Friday in San Jose, California federal court,LIVGolfis seeking "punitive damages against the PGA Tour for its tortuous interference withLIVGolf's prospective business relationships."
The lucrativeLIVGolfseries is being bankrolled by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, which critics say is a vehicle for the country to improve its image in the face of criticism of its human rights record.
Three players still on the lawsuit - Talor Gooch, Matt Jones and Hudson Swafford - had sought a temporary restraining order that would have allowed them to compete in the PGA Tour's playoffs but their request was denied.
