DP World Tour officially bans LIV players from competing in 2027
The DP World Tour has drawn a line in the sand
The DP World Tour (DPWT) has officially announced a ban on players from the LIV Golf Series, effective starting in 2027. This decision comes after DPWT suffered significant financial losses due to LIV's activities, including sponsorship and venue partnerships. The ban also ends LIV players' Ryder Cup eligibility, a decision that was previously considered a loophole for LIV competitors.
DPWT's president, Paul McGinley, emphasized the need for sustainable business models and criticized the financial impacts LIV had on the organization. The move leaves LIV Golf to navigate its future without the support of DPWT, potentially complicating the organization's trajectory.
