Liv Golf takes two advantages. And one may be pleasantly surprised
Yosuke Asaji deserved his way. Scott Vincent read, but he’s coming back.
And the laurie canter may be back, but his movements are surprising.
The Trio of Moves is all part of LIV Golf’s Offsoason, and more seems to be on the way for the Saudi league which finished its fourth season in August. Below, there is a look at the news from last week.
Yosuke Asaji qualifies for Liv Golf
Asaji did so by finishing second during the longest standing of the Asia-based international series. Notably, Liv recently announced that two Liv locations will be awarded based on standings, from one, and the move seems to be aimed at getting the highest points in the league.
Who is Asaji? He is a 29-year-old pro from Japan who has played events this year on the Asian Tour, the Japan Tour and the Korea Pga. He is ranked 237th in the world.
“I was very happy with my wife and my caddy, we were together,” Asaji said Saturday at the Pif Saudi International, the final event of the nationwide series.
“We can go to Liv’s party. I was so excited.”
Scott Vincent is eligible for Liv Golf
Vincent returns to Liv by finishing first in the series’ fight against other countries. The 33-year-old pro from Zimbabwe played with LIV from 2022 to ’24 before being released at the end of the ’24 season.
Vincent is currently ranked 156th in the world. At the Saudi International, he tied for 42nd.
“I woke up at about 4:30, which was two hours before I expected,” Vincent said Saturday. “After that you start playing all the different scenarios in your head, which was not what I was hoping for.
“Yeah, I’m just kind of – I just wanted to come out here and just play freely and give it my best shot, you don’t know how much motivation you’re up against.
“If I want to move and I go into my program and I put and work, I sit down. Yes, I’m not playing well today, but obviously the time is enough.”
Is laurie canter coming back to liv?
On Friday, Sports Business Jourder’s Josh Carpenter reported that the canter will be renewed for Liv – just a week after receiving the PGA tour next year with TOP World Tour-Love Stemmings.
The 36-year-old Englishman played at LIV events from 2022 to ’24 – although he played twice in ’24 – and then played on the DP world tour. In March, he returned to play in the PGA Tour Player Championship for his world ranking.
Then he told Golf’s Josh Scheck:
“I think anyone who plays golf plays [like to be a PGA Tour member]. It’s amazing. “
But now it looks like he’s going back to Liv.
Any other Liv related stuff lately?
Yes, there have been a few things.
– Ben Parsons of Benmered’s recently reported that Henrik Stenton will return to the DP world tour, after playing LIV events from 2022 until the end of this season.
– On Tuesday, Victor Perez withdrew from the PGA Tour’s RSM Classic, and joined Liv.
– Two more players will join LIV after playing its promotion event, set Jan. 8 to 11 in Florida.
