In a surprising turn of events, Laurie Canter, a 36-year-old English golfer, is expected to forgo his newly acquired PGA Tour card in favor of a return to LIV Golf. Canter, who had been competing primarily on the DP World Tour, finished in the top 10 of the season-long standings, which earned him a spot on the PGA Tour for the 2026 season.
However, sources indicate that Canter has decided to rejoin LIV Golf, a move that underscores the ongoing tension between the PGA Tour and the breakaway league. This decision reflects the growing trend of players weighing their options between the established PGA Tour and the lucrative opportunities presented by LIV Golf.
As the landscape of professional golf continues to evolve, Canter's choice may influence other players contemplating similar paths, raising questions about the future of traditional golf tours.
