In an exclusive report by Jamie Corrigan of the Daily Telegraph, the newspaper claims that Johnson, who turns 38 this month, has submitted his application to Wentworth HQ. Johnson confirmed this week that he has resigned from the PGA Tour. Other current members of the PGA Tour who have not resigned have been suspended.

Johnson’s move will draw the attention of DP World Tour CEO Keith Pelley, who has so far remained silent on the situation. Just today, it was reported that the DP World Tour would make a decision on how to proceed with the PGA Tour players to play at the Genesis Scottish Open in July. Because this event is co-approved by the PGA Tour, it puts the DP World Tour in a strange position. Let the guerrillas play or join forces with Jay Monahan?

Monahan acted on Thursday afternoon just 30 minutes after Johnson, Phil Mickelson and the rest of the pitch scored their shots at the Centurion Club. It has been confirmed that all current PGA Tour players playing in LIV Golf matches have been suspended. Prospective PGA Tour players who also play in the league will also face the same punishment, he said.

Bryson DeChambeau has finally confirmed his commitment to play in LIV Golf, starting with the second $ 255 million eight-event series tournament in Portland next month. He is reportedly paid $ 100 million. Greg Norman described it as “innovative”. Just last week, the former US Open champion claimed that the ship’s jump was too dangerous. Rocket Mortgage sponsors have now rejected him. The icons of Ryder Cup Europe, Sergio Garcia, Lee Westwood, Ian Poulter and Graeme McDowell are all trapped in it. Garcia and McDowell quit the PGA Tour. Poulter and Westwood have not. It has been reported that Garcia et al have asked the DP World Tour to maintain their subscriptions so that they can still participate in future Ryder Cups. It would also mean that they could still play in tournaments that would give them guaranteed ranking points so that they could get into the big ones. The behavior of the American Johnson marks an escalation in this epic. PGA Tour professional Harold Varner III has admitted after his first round at the RBC Canadian Open that things are now “serious”. Rory McIlroy and Justin Thomas, who both play in Canada this week, welcomed the bans. It would be remarkable if the DP World Tour decided to turn its back on the “strategic alliance” with the PGA Tour. Corrigan’s report quoted a confidant as saying: “The European tour must catch the nettle and allow all these children to play and survive. “I do not know the legitimacy, but Pelley and his board have a chance to accept it. “Johnson, Mickelson, DeChambeau and all the sponsors like Westwood, Poults, Louis, GMac… would be happy.” Johnson has reportedly said he will play at LIV golf events for the next four years. Sky Sports’ Jamie Weir reported that the American said he was “done” with the PGA Tour.
