Henrik Stenson Set to Rejoin DP World Tour in 2026 After LIV Golf Relegation

His eligibility returns via settlement of more than €1 million in DP World Tour fines following a completed suspension.

Overview

  • He finished 52nd in LIV Golf’s season-long standings, which led to his relegation and effectively ended his tenure in the league.
  • He has settled DP World Tour fines reported at over €1 million and served a suspension, clearing the way for his 2026 return.
  • Reports from Bunkered indicate LIV Golf likely covered the fines, though the league has said it will stop paying players’ penalties after December 31.
  • His minority stake and co-captain role with the Majesticks leave his team involvement for the 2026 LIV season unresolved.
  • He remains ineligible for a PGA Tour return for another year, according to reports cited by NUCLR GOLF and EssentiallySports.
