Overview
- Canter earned a 2026 PGA Tour card by finishing seventh in the 2025 Race to Dubai, becoming the first player with LIV experience to secure a card via the DP World Tour pathway.
- He chose to return to LIV Golf citing a desire to stay based in Dubai with his wife and two young daughters rather than travel to the United States for roughly 30 weeks a year.
- He will play for LIV’s Majesticks team, co-captained by Ian Poulter and Lee Westwood, after previously competing for the franchise in the league’s early seasons.
- Canter says he plans to retain DP World Tour membership and expects to fund any sanctions himself, referencing an estimated £1 million cost to remain eligible.
- His decision follows a career revival that included two DP World Tour wins in the past year, as reporting also notes perceptions of a softer tone from the DP World Tour since a leadership change.
