Paul McGinley blasts LIV Golf players for trying to play on DP World Tour
Former Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley does not agree with the LIV Golf players who want to play on the DP World Tour, too.
Paul McGinley, a former European Ryder Cup captain, vice captain, and player, has seemingly called out the LIV Golf players who still want to play on the DP World Tour.
"You know, in all probability, I may well have gone to LIV at 46, 47 years of age," McGinley said, per the Daily Mail. "If I’m offered $20, $30 million to go and play in a rival league, I’d have done it."
However, McGinley also added where he would've differed from players, such as Lee Westwood and Ian Poulter who at ages 49 and 47 did just that.
Westwood and Poulter headlined the group of LIV Golf members who appealed the DP World Tour's decision to fine and suspend players following their decision to compete in the inaugural LIV Golf event without a release from the DP World Tour.
It was announced that LIV Golf had lost its arbitration case to the DP World Tour last week ahead of The Masters.
And on the topic of the Ryder Cup, which is increasingly looking like it will be LIV Golf-less, McGinley was clear on his stance when it comes to an iconic Ryder Cup player like Poulter:
Earlier this week, McGinley also spoke about the only scenario that he can see where a LIV Golf player would blend in well with the rest of the European Ryder Cup team.
This year's Ryder Cup is set to be held at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club in Rome, Italy from Sept. 25-Oct 1.
