The DP World Tour will not allow players who join LIV Golf next season to compete in its 2027 events, according to multiple reports. The move is described as a shift from the tour’s earlier approach of granting conditional releases to some LIV players.
Outlets report the decision affects eligibility and access to DP World Tour participation in 2027. CBS Sports adds that this can also prevent those players from being eligible for the Ryder Cup cycle, depending on tour requirements tied to membership and competition status. Sky Sports and BBC News similarly state that LIV sign-ups next year will result in denial of circuit membership for 2027.
While details can vary by outlet, the overall picture is consistent: the DP World Tour tightens restrictions around LIV-linked participation for 2027, ending what had been a more permissive arrangement earlier in the LIV/DP World Tour relationship.
