Next week’s Saudi International on the European Tour will feature a world-class field that includes Justin Rose, Brooks Koepka and Dustin Johnson. But Paul Casey will not be making the trip to the inaugural event.
“As I continue to face questions about my participation I feel it is important to clarify that I will not be playing in next week’s Saudi International. Plus, contrary to reports I had also never signed a contract to play,” Casey announced on social media on Friday with the hashtag #unicefgoodwillambasador.
Casey, who holds dual membership on both the PGA and European tours, also posted a picture with his statement that shows him standing next to his golf ball which features a prominent logo for the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF).
