Justin Thomas has admitted beating one of the LIV Golf rebels to this week’s Scottish Open would make the victory that bit more sweet. Thomas tees it up at The Renaissance Club alongside some of the sport’s biggest names in Jon Rahm and Scottie Scheffler with the Open Championship just a week away.
Also in the field though are four LIV Golf members in Ian Poulter, Branden Grace, Justin Harding and Adrian Otaegui. Initially the Saudi defectors were set to miss the event after receiving a banning order from the DP World Tour in response to their move to LIV Golf.
Clearly unhappy with the decision the rebels hit back at the Wentworth-based tour with a legal battle, which eventually proved successful as their suspension was overturned.
