quote:Well, there is your ignorance. OWGR said they could work with all of the above jsut like you stated.
If the cut is the issue then don't give points to anyone outside the top 10 or even top 5. If three rounds is the issue then reduce the points given by 1/4. If the field size is the issue, then reduce the points by the percentage less players that LIV has over an average tour event. OWGR did none of this and instead just denied them completely.
However, you didn’t mention the actual reason LIV is left out

“Some of the format issues – 54 holes, no cut, 48 players – is capable of being dealt with mathematically in the system,” Dawson said. “Things that can’t be are team golf and individual golf [together].
“But the main one is qualification and relegation criteria that apply. With contracts and team captains, there are many ways to stay on the LIV tour even if you are not playing well.
Oh, yeh LIV was really doing everything they could

Also, as few as four players (three from the LIV Promotions Event and one from the Asian Tour International Series) may join LIV in 2024 with the other participants selected by LIV management.[/quote
Maybe next time don’t lie directly to the organization you are trying to join

Individual golf contributing to a team score isn't traditional team golf. Everyone's scores count and it's not a scramble.

So LIV is disqualified from OWGR points because they don't have a Korn Ferry Tour to take players from and instead sign higher quality established golfers directly? I'm pretty sure LIV is affiliated with the Asian Tour and feeds in players from there too.
