Two-time major winner Dustin Johnson says jumping from the PGA Tour to Saudi-backed LIV Golf cost him a spot on this year's US Ryder Cup team.
Two-time major winner Dustin Johnsonsays jumping from the PGA Tour to Saudi-backed LIV Golf cost him a spot on this year's US Ryder Cup team.
Johnson, the 2016 US Open and 2020 Masters champion, won last year's LIV Golf season crown. He won this year's LIV Tulsa title in May but struggled in three of the four majors while placing 10th at the US Open. US captain Zach Johnson did select LIV's Brooks Koepka for his American squad after his fifth major title in May at the PGA Championship and Masters runner-up effort, but who fell out of a guaranteed spot on the last day of qualifying.
LIV players were banned from US PGA Tour events so the only time Johnson has faced top PGA rivals this year has been at majors."When you have been a part of teams for the last 12-14 years, you want to be a part of it because they are great events," Johnson said.
