The recent DP World Tour arbitration hearing announcement will certainly cause some reaction from the affected LIV players. Speaking at The Masters, Thomas Pieters, who joined the Saudi-backed circuit at the start of 2023, believes that the decision made by the Appeal Panel isn't good for the game.
Pieters, who fired a two-over-par first round at Augusta National, was asked about the Sport Resolutions announcement, with the Belgian posed the question: "When you decided to make the jump to LIV, did you at the time think you would be done playing European Tour events?" His response? Well, in an 11 word answer, he bluntly stated "no, but it's their decision, and I respect it. It's whatever."
