The leaders of the controversial Tour tried year after year to get the right to OWGR points, but in the end they failed in such plans. Although the frustrations among LIV Golf's officials grow from month to month regarding such a scenario, it seems that a merger is the only option for them, and the only way they can get OWGR points.

Trevor Immelman said LIV Golf hasn't submitted an application to receive world ranking points. And until that happens, the OWGR won't do much.

LIV Golf getting world ranking points starts with the Saudi-funded league applying for them. Trevor Immelman is the new chairman of the Official World Golf Ranking.
