Patrick Reed ordered to pay court costs in dismissed lawsuit

Golfers who have chosen to ditch the PGA Tour for LIV Golf have been in for their fair share of criticism for chasing money and becoming pawns of the Saudi Arabian government in a sportswashing quest to cover up their questionable human rights record. To this point, only one of them decided to go a litigious route to hit back at his critics – Patrick Reed.

Reed sued just about everybody in the golf media for defamation after he faced criticism for ditching the PGA Tour for LIV Golf. In August 2022, he targeted Brandel Chamblee and Golf Channel in a $750 million defamation suit. Following the initial filing, Reed also added other media companies and notable individual golf writers to that suit.

Reed’s lawsuit has been dismissed multiple times and now the former Masters winner will have to pay for bringing such a laughable and frivolous claim to court. As noted by Andrew Pantazi, Reed will have to pay court costs and attorney fees for those named in his suit after a Jacksonville federal judge ruled in the favor of the defendants and against Reed once again.
