The Official World Golf Ranking announced on February 3, 2026, that LIV Golf events will receive world ranking points starting with this week's season opener in Riyadh, marking a significant but restricted milestone for the Saudi-backed league. Only the top 10 finishers in each event will earn points, a decision that has drawn criticism from LIV for being unprecedented and unfair. The move addresses long-standing concerns over major championship eligibility while highlighting ongoing differences in league structures.
