FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Dustin johnson issues ryder cup plea after making controversial saudi switch - The Untold Story

Dustin Johnson Ryder Cup Graeme McDowell Phil Mickelson LIV Norman PGA Tour PGA of America

Dustin Johnson has resigned his membership of the PGA Tour to play the controversial LIV Golf Invitational Series - which effectively rules him out of the Ryder Cup.

Johnson won all five of his matches in the United States' record 19-9 win over Europe at Whistling Straits last year, but it may prove to be his last appearance at the event. PGA of America chief executive Seth Waugh warned last year: "If someone wants to play on a Ryder Cup for the US, they're going to need to be a member of the PGA of America, and they get that membership through being a member of the (PGA) Tour."

Speaking at a press conference ahead of the inaugural LIV Golf event at Centurion Club near St Albans, which starts on Thursday, Johnson said: "The Ryder Cup is unbelievable and has definitely meant a lot to me. Hopefully I will get a chance to do that again, but I don't make the rules."
