The internal feud between the PGA Tour, DP World Tour and LIV Golf appears to be over, but Henrik Stenson is still out of a job.
Stenson was replaced as the European Team captain for the upcoming Ryder Cup this fall after he opted to join the Saudi Arabian-backed venture. Throughout that process of replacing him with Luke Donald for the biennial event in Italy, Stenson said after the British Open on Sunday, nobody would talk to him.
"And, as a consequence, I feel like we ended up in all of this that could have been avoided. But we live and we learn.''last July, when both the PGA Tour and DP World Tour were actively fighting back against LIV Golf. Stenson played in five Ryder Cups himself, and being named a Ryder Cup captain is one of the biggest honors in the sport. Europe then named Donald as his replacement a few weeks later.
"I've played in five Ryder Cups and was vice captain in one and there's always going to be some great memories from the camaraderie, and some of those camaraderies are still there," Stenson said."I'm not alone in this; the guys that I would have had as my vice captains, we kind of all ended up in the same boat.
