The three golfers Talor Gooch, Matt Jones and Hudson Swafford filed for a temporary restraining order against the PGA Tour that would allow them to play in the tour's final event, the FedEx Cup.
But California federal judge Beth Labson Freeman denied the trio's request on Tuesday, the AP news agency reports.
Freeman's decision is based on the fact that she did not believe the golfers suffered irreparable harm as a result of the suspension because of the large percentage of money they have been guaranteed since joining the LIV tour.
Last month, all three wrote letters to the PGA Tour saying they should be allowed to play because they "are free agents and independent contractors."
The golfers' lawyer, Robert Walters, believes that his clients have been harmed by the suspension, both financially and sportingly.
Among other things, by losing the opportunity to qualify for major tournaments.
"Terrible situation"
The first of three races in the Fedex Cup starts on Thursday, hence the need for a somewhat urgent decision now.
But the PGA Tour's lawyer, Elliot Peters, believes that this case could go to trial within the next year.
Peters also claims that if the bans are lifted, LIV golfers are given a great platform to promote the LIV Tour, while playing on the PGA Tour.
- I think it is a big problem.
The commissioner needs to be able to protect the tour.
This is a terrible situation for the PGA Tour, says Peters according to AP.
