LIV actually needs local qualifiers for 2023, as they do not yet have a qualifying process that ticks the OWGR criteria box.
"A Tour must hold an annual open Qualifying School before the start of each season and/or an open pre-qualifying event for each tournament."— John Conrad (@jerichsen66) November 15, 2022
That’s actually a super cool idea. 👍🏻

Some even said that it would be the perfect way for letting other tours realize how they should’ve talked to LIV Golf rather than standing against it.
would love this, only seeing Live go one way and that's up, the other tours will soon realise they should have come to talk rather than shut them down.

Some also said that it was another opportunity for the players to earn money from the league.
…and once again, we're back at the money, just the money.

While others simply made fun of the concept as usual.
LOLOLOLOL!!!!
