Sanctions for LIV and Asian Tour players have been confirmed by DP World Tour

Posted : 11 May 2023
26 players who participated in LIV Golf and Asian Tour competitions without releases have received punishments from the DP World Tour.
 
Sanctions can range from fines to tournament suspensions, depending on the circumstances of each occurrence and how each event affects the DP World Tour.
 
The sanctions for violating the Conflicting Tournament Regulation vary depending on the specific violation, from £12,500 to £100,000.
 
Sergio Garcia, Lee Westwood, and Ian Poulter withdraw from the DP World Tour; they are ineligible for the Ryder Cup.
"These events occurred in the period from June 22, 2022 to April 2, 2023 - the day before the independent panel appointed by Sport Resolutions released its decision in relation to players competing without releases in the first two LIV Golf events in 2022; at the Centurion Club in England and at Pumpkin Ridge in Oregon," said the DP World Tour in a statement.
 
"That decision determined that the DP World Tour had acted 'entirely reasonably in refusing releases' for those events and that the Conflicting Tournament Regulation was 'reasonable and proportionate to the Tour's continued operation as a professional golf tour'.
 
"The panel also held that the DP World Tour had 'a legitimate and justifiable interest' in enforcing its regulations with the imposition of sanctions such as fines and suspensions."
 
A player can only be suspended for a total of eight DP World Tour events—eight one- or two-week tournaments—for offences committed within that time period.
