Golfer Quits LIV for Majors
4 Nov
Summary
- Player prioritizes Major championship access over LIV Golf.
- LIV Golf 2.0's limited schedule is a key concern.
- Player seeks personal game improvement in Majors.
Lucas Herbert has opted against joining LIV Golf 2.0, citing a lack of both quantity and quality in its proposed events as primary reasons for his decision. His desire to gain more access to and excel in Major championships was a significant factor in ruling out signing up for the team tour.
Herbert, who achieved two wins last season and finished fourth in the LIV Golf standings, believes his career goals are better served away from the team-based tour. He indicated that the proposed 10-event schedule for LIV Golf 2.0 is not enough to build a competitive season around.
The golfer stated that while he is aware of financial aspects, his current career priority is Major championship access. He expressed a personal drive to improve his game and maximize opportunities in prestigious tournaments, referencing his own strong performance at the Open Championship.
The future remains uncertain for other members of Herbert's Ripper GC team, including captain Cam Smith, as LIV Golf's sign-up deadlines have passed without further announcements.
