There will be no Henrik Stenson appearances on a Saudi Arabia-backed breakaway tour, for the time being at least. Confirmation he will captain Europe in the 2023 Ryder Cup came with assurances from the 2016 Open champion he will not play a part in the ongoing golf disruption scheme.
“There’s been a lot of speculations back and forth,” Stenson said. “I am fully committed to the captaincy and to Ryder Cup Europe and the job at hand. So we’re going to keep busy with that and I’m going to do everything in my power to deliver a winning team in Rome.
