An attorney working on behalf of Patrick Reed filed a lawsuit seeking damages - in excess of $750 million - from Brandel Chamblee and Golf Channel for defamation.
The document, which was filed Tuesday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas Houston Division, also states Chamblee and Golf Channel have set out to destroy LIV along with its golf professionals.
The suit is seeking in excess of $750 million in damages. In civil cases, plaintiffs have to prove whether a defendant is liable, not whether a defendant is guilty. According to the document, the suit was filed by Larry Klayman. The Florida-based attorney has been on the losing end of a number of defamation lawsuits, includingsued several national media outlets, alleging they defamed him and impacted his attempt to win a U.S. Senate seat.
Meanwhile, last week a judge ruled against three LIV golfers from participating in the FedEx Cup Playoffs in the first of what's to be many legal battles in the antitrust battle between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf. Reed has played in two LIV Golf events thus far, recording finishes of third in Pumpkin Ridge in Portland and fifth at Trump Bedminster in New Jersey. His team, 4 Aces, captained by Dustin Johnson, has won both events. Reed finished T-47 at the Open Championship at St. Andrews.
