Cameron Smith called the Official World Golf Ranking system "almost obsolete" after its governing body voted unanimously not to award world-ranking points to golfers for their finishes in LIV Golf League tournaments.
Smith was ranked as high as No. 2 in the world after winning The Open at St. Andrews in July 2022. He left the PGA Tour for LIV Golf about two months later and has fallen to 15th in the world.
"I think it is almost obsolete now," Smith told reporters Wednesday in Saudi Arabia, where LIV Golf will play its final regular-season event at Royal Greens Golf and Country Club starting Friday.
