Is the former world No. 1 going to hit a career-low because of LIV Golf? The golfers who made the switch to LIV Golf might have gotten a better purse increase, but there is one thing that has been affected majorly: their OWGR. Every golfer in the PIF league has seen a steep decline in their ranking, as the event on the LIV schedule does not affect the world ranking. Until now, LIV Golf has struggled to get its application approved by the OWGR. In March 2024, due to the short format of the league, the application was rejected. Countering the rejection, the team of LIV Golf withdrew its application. However, the ranking issue of the players is not getting solved.The issue in 2022, when it got into the spotlight, saw the frustration of Brooks Koepka as he shared, “Yeah, not to say something to where it’s not really an answer and we’ll think about it. I don’t agree with — just pick a side. If it’s yes, if it’s no, it’s fine, we’ll figure it out from there.” Something that haunted him again. In 2023, when his ranking fell to 20th position, he said, “That’s embarrassing to be 20th,” as shared by The Palm Beach Post.
