A LIV Golf rebel who was ruthlessly axed after three events has qualified for the 151st Open Championship later this year, while Ian Poulter missed out after being well off the pace at the qualification event.
Australian Travis Smyth was signed up for the inaugural LIV Golf event last year before being axed after three events. However, the world No.277 has booked his place at this year's Open Championship at Royal Liverpool by finishing third in the World City Championship presented by Hong Kong Golf Club.
The Asian Tour event carried four qualification spots for the Open Championship in July attracting LIV Golf rebel Poulter.
