LOS ANGELES – Thomas Pieters is reportedly headed to LIV Golf, dealing another blow to the DP World Tour and Europe’s Ryder Cup prospects.
At No. 34 in the world, Pieters is expected to be the highest-ranked signee for the Saudi-backed league that begins its second season next Friday in Mexico.
Pieters did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The news of Pieters’ signing – which is expected to be made official Monday – was reported by multiple media outlets, including the Telegraph.
The 31-year-old Belgian is a five-time winner on the European tour, most recently in January 2022 at the Abu Dhabi Championship, one of the circuit’s Rolex Series events.
