There will be no such reprieve for Sam Horsfield, who was hoping to play his way back to Europe\u2019s top table. The Englishman, who is $14m richer<\/a> thanks to five years on Ian Poulter and Lee Westwood\u2019s Majesticks GC, could only manage to get to 3-under par \u2013 nine shots back of the magic number at Isla Canela.<\/p>\n The same goes for Michael La Sasso, who was one of the hottest amateurs in the game when he joined Phil Mickelson\u2019s HyFlyers GC for the 2026 season, earned $6m<\/a> in his year on the league, including victory in Indianapolis<\/a> which might still prove to be the last ever LIV event. But he will have to find another route to a tour card for next season after finishing in a tie for 64th at Desert Springs.<\/p>\n There were four other names connected with LIV involved in Second Stage. Yosuke Asaji, who made almost $2m<\/a> as a LIV wildcard this season, missed out by a single shot at Desert Springs, while Kieran Vincent, who played two seasons on LIV in 2023 and \u201924 and banked more than $5m<\/a> in the process, made it through thanks to a runner-up finish.<\/p>\n Also going to the Final Stage are Ben Schmidt, who stepped in to replace an injured Lee Westwood earlier this year, and Luis Carrera, a Crushers reserve at LIV Golf Mexico, who enjoyed top-10 finishes at Las Pinaillas and Isla Canela respectively.<\/p>\n![\"Laurie](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/cantermajesticks.jpg\")
