In November 2025, Nicklaus Companies filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy after losing a $50 million defamation lawsuit against its founder, Jack Nicklaus. The company stated that the filing allows it to "proactively address its long-term funded indebtedness and other liabilities, as well as a jury verdict returned in a Florida state court last month following a lawsuit filed by company founder and former co-chair Jack Nicklaus.” [5]
