The reason for the extraordinary solution is that Stenson is about to grab the million-dollar lure of the scandalous Saudi-funded LIV tour.

Swedish golf star Henrik Stenson was named in March as the captain of the European team for the 2023 Ryder Cup, one of the most famous golf competitions in the world. It is played every other year against the United States team.
At that time, Stenson considered the captaincy, among other things, the realization of a big dream and assured that he was “fully committed” to pesti.
On Wednesday afternoon, that dream was dashed when Stenson was fired as captain. This was announced by the European Ryder Cup organization. The decision, which has been rumored for some time, will take effect immediately.
The reason The most unusual solution is that the 46-year-old Stenson is signing a contract with the notorious Saudi-funded LIV tour, which in the eyes of many is driving top men’s golf into disarray.
Ryder Cup Europe justified its decision by saying that due to Stenson’s “personal circumstances” it is clear that he will not be able to fulfill certain contractual obligations he had committed to before being named captain in March.
The Ryder Cup will be played next September in Rome. The new European captain will be named later.
of Stenson there is yet another veteran player who has left the peak of his career behind, who will move to a tour financed by Saudi Arabia after millions of bonuses.
The competitions organized by it are considered by many parties to be mainly show events, where even the players who played poorly and are at the bottom of the leaderboard earn considerable sums.
