Team Captain, Zach Johnson of USA Says No to LIV Golfers on 2023 Ryder Team

Zach Johnson clearly drew his line in the sand in how he feels about players moving to the LIV Golf. Seemingly it doesn’t appear that LIV golfers are going to be included in much outside the Asian Tour and LIV Golf for now.

“In order to play on the Ryder Cup team, whether you’re top six or a pick, you must garner Ryder Cup points through the PGA of America,” Johnson said.

“In order to garner Ryder Cup points through the PGA of America, you have to be a member of the PGA of America. The way that we’re members of the PGA of America is through the PGA Tour.

Zach Johnson’s presser details his complete thoughts starting at the time mark 8:42. He wants his friends on LIV to have the best and be content.

However, he also expects the same in return from his friends on his choice about staying with the PGA Tour.

It is likely the Ryder Cup team won’t be having guys like Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson, and Bryson Dechambeau, but a lot of time is between now and next year for the Ryder Cup in 2023.

There could be a possible agreement with Brooks and Bryson as the two did not resign from the PGA Tour as Dustin Johnson did. A lot is changing in the world of golf and we are along for the ride.
