LIV is expected to stop paying its members\u2019 fines after this year.<\/p>\n<p>Stenson joined LIV as a co-captain of the Majesticks in July 2022 and was subsequently suspended by the DP World and PGA tours while also losing his 2023 European Ryder Cup captaincy.<\/p>\n<p>After finishing 52nd in LIV points this year, Stenson lost his spot. He can participate in LIV\u2019s Promotions event in January to try and regain his LIV membership, though this news signals that Stenson is headed back to the DP World Tour, where he last played in 2023. Stenson resigned his DP World Tour membership shortly after that start, following a court\u2019s decision ruling in favor of the DP World Tour\u2019s ability to imposed fines and suspensions on LIV players.<\/p>\n<p>Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton, both Ryder Cup participants this year, appealed their fines last year, though no hearing date has been set.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Henrik Stenson is returning to the DP World Tour.
