Sergio Garcia’s Return to the DP World Tour: A Step Towards the Ryder Cup

Sergio Garcia is making a fresh start on the DP World Tour. The Spaniard, who set European Ryder Cup records, wants to play his way back into the world elite – with a clear goal in mind: to return to the European team for the 2025 Ryder Cup in Bethpage.

Garcia’s DP World Tour retirement prevents participation in the Ryder Cup

Following his retirement from the DP World Tour in May 2023, Garcia’s career in Europe appeared to have stalled after sanctions were imposed on him and other LIV golf players. Participating in LIV Golf events in the Saudi-backed series without authorisation led to significant consequences: hefty fines, tournament bans and the loss of his Ryder Cup eligibility. But Garcia has decided to turn over a new leaf. Over a million pounds in fines have been paid, the conditions accepted – the door to returning as a member of the Tour has been opened.

DP World Tour confirms re-entry

The official re-entry was confirmed by a DP World Tour spokesperson. His return is therefore a done deal, even if Garcia will not be able to officially take part in DP World Tour events again until the 2025 season. This return marks a decisive step in Garcia’s plan to qualify for the Ryder Cup again – a goal that has always played a special role in his golf career.

With 28.5 points, Garcia is the most successful player in the history of the European Ryder Cup. His name is synonymous with passion and success in one of golf’s most prestigious duels.

Ryder Cup comeback: a rocky road

However, this path will not be easy. Results from LIV golf tournaments in which Garcia continues to play do not count towards the European Ryder Cup ranking. This means that he will have to impress with strong performances in majors and on the DP World Tour – or hope for a wild card. Garcia proved in 2024 that he is still playing at the highest level: A win at Valderrama and six top-five finishes in 14 LIV events earned him third place in the individual rankings.

But for the Ryder Cup, only what happens on the DP World Tour counts. The decision is in the hands of captain Donald, who has made it clear that all players with membership have an equal chance.

More familiar faces on the DP World Tour 2025

With Sergio Garcia’s return, the DP World Tour 2025 will also welcome some other familiar faces from the LIV Golf League. In contrast to Garcia, who was the only one not active on the DP World Tour at the same time, the returnees include Ryder Cup stars such as Tyrrell Hatton, Jon Rahm and Thomas Pieters as well as up-and-coming talents such as Adrian Meronk and Joaquin Niemann.

DP World Tour Season Finale: Matt Wallace Loses his Nerve

Matt Wallace did not show his best side at the DP World Tour Championship at the weekend, where he finished tied 11th. Anyone who has ever swung a club has probably experienced for themselves that golf can sometimes drive you mad. Nevertheless, there are rules of conduct on the golf course and, especially among professionals who are considered role models, freak-outs are not welcome. Tyrrell Hatton, who is known for his emotions on the course, also allowed himself to overreact.

Matt Wallace takes his anger out on the fairway

Matt Wallace’s round was apparently satisfactory. Although he started with two bogeys on holes 1 and 3, he then improved significantly. With a series of birdies on holes 8 to 11, he made up a few places on the leaderboard, on which he was already among the leaders.

His emotional outburst then followed on the par-5 14th. His tee shot landed in the thick rough, leaving him a few meters behind with his second shot. He then sank his third shot in the greenside bunker, which was the last straw. Wallace rammed his club into the fairway, leaving clearly visible damage. Neither he nor his caddie bothered to repair the damage. In the end, he recorded a bogey on 14.

After the tournament, Wallace summed up his tournament on Twitter. There was no comment on his slip-up.

Tyrrell Hatton divides clubs

Tyrrell Hatton, who finished sixth in Dubai, also allowed himself a slip-up. It was not the course that fell victim to this, but his club, which he unceremoniously broke after a failed shot. The commentator described such behavior as a “terrible influence on the next generation”.

Bryson DeChambeau lives up to his new reputation as a model social media personality and is always coming up with new games and jokes. For example, he has eggs thrown at him – what you don’t do to generate attention.

Or he takes on the self-imposed challenge of making a hole-in-one – by hitting a blind shot over his own house in Dallas onto a green in his garden. The additional difficulty: the two-time US Open champion only allows himself as many attempts as the number of days he spends on the bet – so one shot on the first day, two on the second and so on. Of course, DeChambeau updates his fan community each time via TikTok to keep his followers happy:

Hot Stuff: What a fuss there was about tickets for next year’s Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black. ‘Scandal, profiteering, we’re being ripped off’, was the cry in view of the 750 dollars excluding fees etc. for a day ticket to the continental competition on a public golf course, for which the green fee is 75 dollars. But what can we say: the event was sold out within a few hours.

According to the organising PGA of America, the tickets were sent to 47 countries, including 2,500 tickets to Europe. In addition to the 750 dollars per day, there were also 200 dollars in fees and 60 dollars for a parking ticket. Those who arrived too late can at best hope to be successful with SeatGeek, the PGA of America’s partner for the resale of tickets.
