Under the new provision by the PGA of America, all LIV Golf players are eligible for the PGA Championship. In addition, any American player who qualifies for the Ryder Cup, a biennial golf competition between teams from the United States and Europe, on points or is added to the U.S. team as a captain’s pick is eligible to compete in those prestigious tournaments.
