While Wiesberger briefly participated in LIV Golf, he ultimately decided to rejoin the DP World Tour for the 2024 season. In a surprising turn of events, Wiesberger recently made a statement that has reverberated throughout the golfing community.
Wiesberger shared a tweet from Flushing It on social media platform X, discussing Henrik Stenson’s remarks about the professional golf divide. The 28-year-old mentioned that he was banned by the PGA Tour from participating in the Barracuda Championship and the ISCO Championship.
“Same here. Just received a letter by the pgat banning me from playing the isco and barracuda. Never been a member either. Who knows what’s going on over there…”
Henrik Stenson cited Richard Bland as an illustration, highlighting that despite Bland’s victory in the PGA Championship, he was informed that he would not receive any opportunities to participate in the Champions Tour. Stenson expressed his understanding that Bland was ineligible to compete in the Champions Tour due to his involvement in LIV Golf.
