A LIV Golf rebel has moved into the world's top 50 despite missing out on ranking points at the series' opening event in Mexico last weekend.
American star Harold Varner III saw his ranking rise from No.51 to 49 despite failing to accumulate any points for his joint 27th place finish at the rebel series opener in Mayakoba. Despite finishing in the bottom-half of the 48-player restricted field Varner III was rewarded for his efforts with £131,230 individual prize money for the opening round.
The expanded 14-tournament series recruited some of the biggest names in golf during their inaugural year in 2022.
