The series’ request was turned down by the Official World Golf Ranking body.
LIV Golf has been denied world ranking points after having a request turned down by the Official World Golf Ranking body.
The decision was made after the OWGR could not find a “fair and equitable way” to assess those competing in LIV golf events, meaning it will not be recognised as an Eligible Golf Tour according to the OWGR.A statement from OWGR chairman Peter Dawson read: “It is unfortunate that no way to include LIV Golf in the ranking could be found which would be fair and equitable to the 24 currently eligible tours and their thousands of playing members.
LIV responded to the decision, insisting professional golf is “now without a true or global scoring and ranking system”. “Players have historically remained subject to a single world ranking to qualify for major championships, the biggest events, and for corporate sponsor contract value.“A ranking which fails to fairly represent all participants, irrespective of where in the world they play golf, robs fans, players and all of golf’s stakeholders of the objective basis underpinning any accurate recognition of the world’s best player performances.
