Two-time PGA Tour winner Sungjae Im of South Korea denied reports that he is set to move to LIV Golf with a post to social media this week.
With multiple reports saying the 2018-19 PGA Tour rookie of the year was moving on to LIV Golf, Im posted one such story to his Instagram account, with the words "Fake news," followed by a thumbs-down emoji.
The winner of the 2020 Honda Classic and 2021 Shriners Children's Open had a strong 2025 season, finishing in the top 10 three times, including tied for fifth at The Masters.

The 2026 PGA Tour season begins 15-18 January with the Sony Open at Honolulu, while LIV Golf's 2026 season starts 4-7 February at Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
