LIV Golf's Lee Westwood hits out at DP World Tour as he explains Ryder Cup resignation

Lee Westwood hit out at the DP World Tour after resigning, maintaining he never knew about the punishments that would come his way.

The veteran found himself in hot water when he became one of the first men to sign up with LIV Golf, which remains at war with the DP World Tour and the PGA Tour. Westwood was hit with a hefty fine by the DP World Tour, which has since been held up in court.

Westwood has now joined several other stalwarts in Sergio Garcia and Ian Poulter in giving up their cards. The 50-year-old began competing on the tour in the 1990s and has enjoyed huge success, but is no longer a believer in its direction, accusing it of "jumping into bed with the PGA Tour".
