Dustin Johnson has resigned his membership of the PGA Tour to play the controversial LIV Golf Invitational Series - which effectively rules him out of the Ryder Cup.
Johnson won all five of his matches in the United States' record 19-9 win over Europe at Whistling Straits last year, but it may prove to be his last appearance at the event. PGA of America chief executive Seth Waugh warned last year: "If someone wants to play on a Ryder Cup for the US, they're going to need to be a member of the PGA of America, and they get that membership through being a member of the (PGA) Tour."
Speaking at a press conference ahead of the inaugural LIV Golf event at Centurion Club near St Albans, which starts on Thursday, Johnson said: "The Ryder Cup is unbelievable and has definitely meant a lot to me. Hopefully I will get a chance to do that again, but I don't make the rules."
