Henrik Stenson has been stripped of the Europe Ryder Cup captaincy after his switch to the controversial Saudi-led LIV Golf series was confirmed.
Stenson was announced as Padraig Harrington's successor in March as Europe look to regain the Ryder Cup in Italy next year.
But, following his decision to take the millions on offer in the LIV series, he has now been removed from the post with immediate effect.
