Overview
- Stenson, 49, told Bunkered he will rejoin the European circuit next season rather than attempt LIV Golf’s promotions route.
- He served an undisclosed suspension and has now restored his DP World Tour status for 2026, according to multiple reports.
- The Swede finished 49th in LIV’s 2025 standings to land in the league’s drop zone after a season with just one top-20 finish.
- He previously resigned his DP World Tour card in 2023 and was stripped of the 2023 Team Europe Ryder Cup captaincy after joining LIV.
- Reports indicate LIV had covered some player fines in the past and has said it will stop doing so at year-end, while the timing of Stenson’s first DP start and his Majesticks GC role remain unclear.
