Former Masters champion Patrick Reed leaving LIV Golf, cleared for PGA Tour return

  • On Jan 28, 2026, Patrick Reed, the 2018 Masters champion, announced he is leaving LIV Golf and will compete full-time on the DP World Tour before returning to the PGA Tour.
  • Reed resigned his PGA Tour membership in 2022, which makes him eligible to compete as a non-member beginning on August 25, and the PGA Tour sent a memo outlining a path back for players like him outside the Returning Member Program.
  • Fresh off his Dubai Desert Classic win on Sunday, Reed has 12 career wins and a full DP World Tour schedule that includes Bahrain this week.
  • He can play fall FedEx Cup events via sponsor exemptions, including Biltmore Championship Asheville, but he would not be eligible for Player Equity Program shares or use past-champion limited status.
  • Weeks after Brooks Koepka's PGA return, Reed is the second high-profile player to quit LIV Golf as the circuit prepares its fifth season next week in Saudi Arabia.
