It looks like Louisiana will spend at least $7 million to bring LIV Golf to New Orleans.

The Louisiana Senate Finance Committee inserted funding for the Saudi-owned golf tour into the proposed $49 billion state operating budget. LIV Golf would receive a hosting fee of $5 million from that amount.

Senate President Cameron Henry says the event is projected to bring in $60 million for New Orleans.
