Following the news that the DP World Tour has won February's arbitration hearing against a number of its members who play in the LIV Golf League, the Saudi-backed series has responded to the possible sanctions which could be put in place.
Matthew Schwartz of Gibson Dunn, counsel to LIV Golf, stated that: “We disagree with the procedural opinion from the DP World Tour’s arbitral body, which has failed to address in reasonable substance why competitive forces must be upheld. By punishing players for playing golf, the DPWT is seeking to unreasonably control players and it is the sport and fans that suffer. There are no winners."
