LIV Golf’s Sergio Garcia is set to rejoin the DP World Tour for the 2025 season as he seeks to play at next year’s Ryder Cup.<\/b><\/p>\n

Garcia, 44, who is the event’s record points scorer, wants to match Lee Westwood and Sir Nick Faldo’s European record of 11 appearances at the biennial competition. <\/p>\n

However, in order for that to happen, the Spaniard has had to settle the outstanding substantial fines – reported to be over \u00a31m – imposed on him by the tour for his previous defection to play LIV events, and he will also have to serve a suspension.<\/p>\n

A spokesman for the Europe-based DP World Tour confirmed former Masters winner Garcia submitted an application to return to the membership before the 17 November deadline.<\/p>\n

European players wishing to be selected for the Ryder Cup must be members of the tour.<\/p>\n

“He has paid his fines but will have to serve his suspensions before he can play on the DP World Tour,” the spokesman added.<\/p>\n

The 2025 Ryder Cup takes place at Bethpage in New York from 26-28 September.<\/p>\n

Europe’s captain Luke Donald recently said he had been speaking to Garcia about the Spanish star returning to the tour and becoming eligible to play on the team.<\/p>\n

Garcia has won 16 titles on the European tour, as well as 11 PGA Tour titles, with his 2017 Masters title counting in both tallies.<\/p>\n

He joined the breakaway LIV Golf, a Saudi-funded series, in 2022 along with other big names from the sport.<\/p>\n

He resigned his membership of the European circuit in May 2023<\/a> after an arbitration panel found in favour of the DP World Tour and confirmed its right to fine and ban players who competed in LIV Golf events without permission.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
