Including Rae’s Creek Pisser (Ballester).

Patrick Reed won here last year.
Schwartzel & Reed the only two playing that are currently exempt

Wishing our boys luck. Hoping for Ballester to get in again, so he can continue to wear upside down street logo hats and take a dump in Rae's creek instead of a piss next year.

McKibbin is the leader after R1 at -10.

Don’t worry, the great Gooch is T103, back at E

Except for about 3 or 4, the rest have gone into obscurity.

Damn. 6 months out and the '26 Masters already got an asterisk.

His fellow Northern Irishman, Rory McIlroy, had previously warned him that by signing with the Saudi-funded circuit in January, he was "potentially sacrificing" opportunities to compete in the Majors and Ryder Cup.

Despite disregarding McIlroy's advice and committing to LIV Golf, 22-year-old McKibbin, who secured a PGA Tour card for 2025 in Dubai last November and showed promise in January's Team Cup for prospective Ryder Cup contenders, will now join the title holder for his Masters campaign in April after his dominant seven-stroke victory on his Asian Tour debut. With two tournaments remaining on the DP World Tour - starting in Abu Dhabi this week - he also moves into the world's top 100, positioning himself as a contender for the 2027 European squad at Adare Manor.

"When I was deciding whether to join LIV it was a big factor but I seemed to back myself, played the best golf I can and see where that leads me," McKibbin said.

"I played two (Majors) last year and two next year. If you can play good golf that takes care of it and you can definitely still get in these big tournaments."
