Aces champion Jon Rahm said the Official World Golf Positioning (OWGR) isn’t “a decent framework” after LIV Golf pulled out its application to join.
A letter from the league’s Chief Greg Norman told players it won’t seek after its offered for world positioning places.
“Obviously the most effective way forward for LIV as a league and LIV golfers isn’t through the ongoing positioning framework,” Norman said.
The Saudi-moved league was denied OWGR authorization in October.
Double cross significant victor and world number three Rahm is among the players to have changed from the PGA Visit to LIV Golf.
“I will return to what I said quite a while back. I didn’t think it [OWGR] was a decent framework in those days,” said Spaniard Rahm, talking before the LIV Golf Hong Kong, which starts on Friday.
“Regardless, the additional time goes on, the more it disproves,” the 29-year-old added.
At the point when LIV Golf originally applied in July 2022 – a month after its development – the OWGR raised worries about the new league’s configuration.
It includes similar 54 players all season who play 54-opening, shotgun start, no-cut occasions.
Norman’s letter to LIV’s players, which has been seen by BBC Game, said: “A goal which safeguards the exactness, validity and respectability of the OWGR rankings does not exist anymore.
“The OWGR has shown little eagerness to work with us gainfully.”
LIV players may have the option to work on their reality positioning, which is one of the elements used to decide qualification for significant titles, through DP World Visit occasions, the Asian Visit or other satellite visits.
With LIV Golf players getting no focuses from the circuit’s occasions, a large number of the enormous names that left the US PGA Visit have descended the rankings, with Rahm one of only four LIV players who presently highlight in the OWGR’s best 50.
Individual significant hero Bryson DeChambeau said it ultimately depended on those responsible for the game to see as a “aggregate way” to correct the issue.
“We ought to zero in on having the best players in the majors,” said the American.
“All the overseeing bodies, everyone, meet up, plunk down and sort this out. Since we want to do this for the fans.”
LIV and PGA Visit players go up against one another at majors, with numerous LIV players procuring their direction into the tournaments in view of past achievements.
The majors can make exceptions and issue their own solicitations, as has been done for the current year with Chilean Joaquin Niemann, who has been given extraordinary solicitations for next month’s US Bosses and the US PGA Title in May.
“Presently they’ve allowed one player an opportunity in practically no time there will be an answer,” said Rahm. “I believe it’s opening the entryway somewhat.
“In the event that anyone in this world doesn’t think ‘Joaco’ [Niemann] should be in the main 10 or doesn’t realize that he’s a top player on the planet, I don’t have the foggiest idea what game you’re watching.”
In the interim, British Open officials have made no concessions to LIV Golf, making it progressively challenging to meet all requirements for the tournament through the world positioning focuses course.
Previous significant champs Rahm, Cameron Smith, Dustin Johnson, Creeks Koepka, DeChambeau and Phil Mickelson as of now have places during the current year’s British Open at Imperial Troon in July.
DeChambeau said players ought to be welcome to the majors in view of their exhibition in the earlier year.
“They do it with [the PGA] Visit Title, correct? Extremely straightforward,” he said.
Discussions around a consolidation are still underway between the PGA Visit and Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Asset, which subsidizes LIV Golf.
