The inaugural LIV Golf Invitational event in June was a notorious one for the sport of golf - with 48 rebel players playing for extortionate sums of money.
Since that week at The Centurion Club, the saga has exploded, with a further event taking place in Oregon and a host of big name stars joining the defectors. Greg Norman's rebel venture is now undoubtedly gathering pace, with the capture of European Ryder Cup captain Henrik Stenson a seismic blow to the status quo.
However, as new stars have signed up to the Saudi-backed venture, others have been cast aside. In fact, nine of the players who took to the first tee in Hertfordshire on June 9, were absent from the second event - and have also not been granted a spot in the third LIV event in Bedminster on July 29.
