Canter Rumored To Rejoin LIV Golf"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Laurie Canter, 2025 has been an eventful year.\u00a0 He <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/2025\/03\/14\/laurie-canter-jumps-from-liv-to-pga\/\" target=\"_self\">started playing on the PGA Tour<\/a> after his suspension ended for being with LIV

target=\"_self\">Recently, he earned his Tour Card<\/a>.\u00a0 Now the rumor mill is running with news that he is looking to forgo his Tour Card in favor of rejoining LIV Golf.\u00a0 A rumor that raises many questions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Canter\u2019s Opinion On LIV Golf<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Earlier in the year, when Laurie Canter started making his way through PGA Tour events, he gave a couple of interviews.\u00a0 The subject came around to his time on LIV Golf.\u00a0 He was upset that he was relegated from the league, but he never held a grudge.\u00a0 Oftentimes, he said that it was a great experience for him.\u00a0 Particularly with the star players, giving him pointers and advice along the way.\u00a0 The only thing he didn&#8217;t like was the feud between the two leagues, but tension has simmered down greatly since LIV was founded, to the point that merger talks have occasionally resurfaced.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Rumor<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The news of Laurie Canter considering rejoining LIV Golf comes <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsbusinessjournal.com\/Articles\/2025\/11\/21\/laurie-canter-in-line-to-re-join-liv-golf-in-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">courtesy of Sports Business Journal<\/a>.\u00a0 It is also confusing because Canter just earned his Tour Card last week at the DP World Tour Championship.\u00a0 There, he finished T3 and gathered enough points to earn him that Tour Card.\u00a0 The sources that SBJ cites are kept anonymous in the article announcing the switch, but according to the author, they are familiar with the matter.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What This Would Mean For Canter<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Canter, a return to LIV Golf would, of course, be incredibly lucrative.\u00a0 It would also mean a fresh start in the league.\u00a0 It is unclear if he would be able to join his old team, the Cleeks GC, but there are other teams with openings.\u00a0 Teams like the HyFlyers, Torque, and the Iron Heads, all of which saw a member relegated this year.\u00a0 Some say that he will likely take<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/golf\/dp-world-tour-reclaims-henrik-stenson-after-liv-golf-relegation\/\" target=\"_self\"> Henrik Stenson\u2019s spot on the Majesticks<\/a>.\u00a0 As for the Tour Card, it would instead go to the runner-up for 10th on the DP World Tour race to Dubai.\u00a0 It would also mean that the history Canter made by switching between the leagues would be made void by switching back.\u00a0 A strange thing for golf trivia nights when they get to the LIV Golf category of the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Canter And The Rumors<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the time of writing, Laurie Canter hasn\u2019t spoken on the issue.\u00a0 The rumors have only just begun, giving Canter no time to comment on himself.\u00a0 If they are true, it means that he worked himself back up to get back into LIV Golf.\u00a0 If they are not true, and Canter plans to follow through on the PGA Tour, it means that the rumors were unfounded.\u00a0 Until Canter comments, fans are expecting to see him play on the PGA Tour throughout 2026.\u00a0 They are still excited to see what he will bring to the table.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Main Photo Credit:\u00a0 \u00a9 Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For
