LIV Golf, a Saudi-backed league, has been unanimously denied world ranking accreditation by the OWGR board due to concerns over the league's format. This decision, a contentious issue since the league's inception, is expected to have profound implications for the organization and its players. The rejection may prompt major championships to adjust their qualification criteria, potentially expanding the pool of golfers invited outside the OWGR. LIV Golf has responded to the decision, but the impact on its players remains significant.
