LIV Golf Seeks World Ranking Points with Proposed Format Changes
LIV Golf has been striving to gain Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR) points since its launch in 2022 but has faced repeated rejections due to concerns over format, field size, and lack of promotion and relegation. Jon Rahm, a leading LIV player, has proposed potential changes to the league's format to aid in securing OWGR recognition, including expanding the number of teams and players, adding a fourth round, and possibly introducing cuts, though he emphasizes preserving LIV Golf's core identity. Rahm believes that expanding to about 15 teams with 60 players could make the league more compatible with OWGR criteria and allow for more ranking points. Other players like Bryson DeChambeau have supported additional changes such as a relegation system to strengthen the league's case. LIV Golf, now under CEO Scott O'Neil, has reapplied for OWGR points and is awaiting a decision, with optimism among players and leadership that some modifications could lead to acceptance. Meanwhile, Joaquin Niemann has highlighted the competitive nature of the current LIV points system, suggesting further changes might be needed to address inconsistencies in player standings.
