Mickelson, Dechambeau Among LIV Golfers to Have 2022-23 PGA Tour Memberships Revoked

Numerous players who now play on the LIV Golf Invitational Series have had their 2022-23 PGA Tour memberships revoked.

According to Bob Harig of Sports Illustrated, the PGA Tour sent a letter to players who didn't resign their membership when they left for LIV, including Phil Mickelson, Bryson DeChambeau and Pat Perez. That group does not include players who already resigned, including Dustin Johnson, Kevin Na and Patrick Reed.

The letter was sent by Kirsten Burgess, the Tour's vice president, competition administration. It read in part:

"The Tour cannot enter into a membership agreement with a player when, as here, it reasonably anticipates the player will not perform the material obligations under that agreement.
