Sergio Garcia considers rejoining DP World Tour for Ryder Cup eligibility

In October 2024, Sergio Garcia is contemplating rejoining the DP World Tour to qualify for the upcoming Ryder Cup, as confirmed by Europe captain Luke Donald. Garcia had previously resigned from the Tour in May 2023 after facing sanctions for participating in LIV Golf events without permission. Despite being the only player among 17 sanctioned not to pay his fine, discussions about his potential return have taken place. Donald noted that Garcia is interested in rejoining, but he must adhere to the Tour's rules and regulations. If he decides to return, he would need to reapply for membership and address significant sanctions before being eligible for the required events. The atmosphere at the Ryder Cup, particularly at Bethpage, is expected to be challenging for Garcia, who has faced hostility from crowds in the past. The American fans are known for their passionate support, which could create a difficult environment for him if he makes the team. Overall, Garcia's decision to rejoin the Tour could have implications for his participation in future Ryder Cups, as well as the dynamics of the competition itself.
