<\/p>\n\tHA HA HA! I am sorry but you have to laugh out loud<\/p>\n
\tIn a court hearing a lawyer acting for LIV Golf accused the DP World Tour of interfering with the establishment of LIV 2.0.<\/p>\n
\tThis is, of course, a reference to the DP World Tour giving players a stark and entirely understandable ultimatum about the 2027 season – you either sign up to play exclusively with us or you don\u2019t get to play with us at all.<\/p>\n
\tIt is utterly laughable that LIV should take the hump over this. I would remind you that this is the same organisation that came waving obscene amounts of money under players\u2019 noses and thought nothing of the damage it may cause the game.<\/p>\n

\tEuropean stars such as Jon Rahm, Tyrrell Hatton, Sam Horsfield, David Puig and Tom McKibbin all succumbed.<\/p>\n
\tIt was an unsustainable model and was always doomed to fail and now it looks like the inevitable has happened.<\/p>\n
\tSo let me ask you a question: do you suppose for one second that when all those players were being signed up on obscene contracts that LIV gave a second\u2019s thought to what it might all mean for the DP World Tour? Of course they didn\u2019t!<\/p>\n
\tGuy Kinnings and his team have taken absolutely the correct stance. I was never able to understand why, despite paying fines, LIV golfers were allowed to pick and choose.<\/p>\n
\tReality now bites. Brooks Koepka, Patrick Reed, Rahm, Sergio Garcia and others have all deserted the sinking ship. More will follow.<\/p>\n
\tFormer LIV golfers should go to Qualifying School<\/p>\n
\tJoost Luiten put it quite succinctly when he said that players who left for LIV proved they “didn\u2019t give a s***” about the DP World Tour and, therefore, shouldn\u2019t be invited back with open arms.<\/p>\n
