LIV Golf star Sergio Garcia will be competing at next month's US Open at Los Angeles Country Club, but the 2017 Masters champion was forced to earn his place the hard way.
Garcia is one of many LIV stars to have tumbled down the world rankings in the past year, with the Saudi-backed circuit still yet to be recognised by the Official World Golf Rankings (OWGR). Away from LIV competition this has had huge effects on rebels who were hoping to compete at this year's major championships.
Garcia was able to compete at the opening major of the year at the Masters last month, having earned a lifetime exemption after winning the green jacket six years ago.
