Henrik Stenson, who joined LIV Golf three years ago, caused an avalanche of reactions and became a controversial figure on the golf scene. The Swedish golfer had a strong ambition related to LIV Golf, stressing that this project is attractive to him and having no doubt that he made the right decision. However, just three years later, the Swedish golfer was eliminated from the controversial tour, ending up in the Drop Zone.
Stenson was co-captain of the Majesticks GC, but unfortunately his story on LIV is over. The Swedish golfer was not at his level, and he was not as dominant a figure as some might have expected.
However, in an interview with Golf Monthly, DP World Tour officials revealed that Henrik Stenson has paid the fines he had for competing at LIV Golf and is returning to the European Tour. The news surprised many, but the experienced golfer has serious ambitions.
Ryder Cup
The Swedish golfer was supposed to be the captain of the European Ryder Cup team, but his joining LIV spoiled the plans, and Luke Donald ultimately became the captain, which turned out to be the right decision.
Stenson resigned from the DP World in 2023.
It remains to be seen how his return to the European Tour will play out, but whether the experienced golfer will attempt a return to LIV.
The LIV Golf Promotions event will be a chance for him to return to the controversial tour and showcase his talent. However, he is aware that he faces a tough task.
The leaders of LIV Golf are not satisfied with the progress made so far, hoping that things will look different for them in the future. Their wishes and ambitions now are to devote themselves to the talents in the world of golf, wanting to base their project on potential, not on already polished diamonds.
Whether they will succeed in this, it is difficult to say with certainty, but they certainly have the desire and passion to become a tour that will have the main say in the world of golf.
