Laurie Canter is an interesting name for many in the world of golf and his future is always under scrutiny. If reports are to be believed, Laurie Canter has revealed that he is stepping down from his PGA Tour card in 2026 to return to LIV Golf. His career at LIV was full of challenges, and after 18 appearances on the controversial Tour, Canter returned to the European Tour.
However, Laurie Canter was able to qualify for TPC Sawgrass after breaking into the top 50 in the world rankings, becoming the first former LIV Golfer to qualify and play in a non-major PGA Tour event. Canter looked to be ready for his PGA career next season, having secured a spot through the Race to Dubai.
Laurie shared on social media that he is proud of his success, having serious ambitions for the future. However, judging by media reports, the English golfer plans to give up his card and wants to become part of the Saudi Backed Tour starting next season.

What will happen?
It would certainly be an important change in Canter's career, but we doubt that it would cause positive reactions in the public. It is difficult to predict which team this 36-year-old would join, but there is more and more mention of the Majesticks team, which has serious potential and quality.
Such a decision would make things easier for others as well, given that England's Daniel Brown could get his last PGA Tour card if Canter does join LIV.
The situation in the world of golf is interesting and there is no doubt that an exciting future awaits us. There are a lot of interesting names and talented golfers fighting for their place on the ranking list.
What the future of this experienced golfer will be is difficult to give precise forecasts, but it seems that not only he, but also the rest of the golf scene, hope that at some point the PGA Tour and LIV Golf will unite.
