Bubba Watson has strong comments on LIV Golf representation in majors

Bubba Watson said he's been consistent with his answer in regard to LIV Golf representation in the majors.

So, when Watson was asked about the topic again on the heels of the U.S. Open and The Open announcing formal qualification paths for players from the LIV Tour, he was only happy to share his thoughts.

"Yeah, I think that any chance we have to get into the majors, get all of us playing together again, it's always a good thing," Watson said Thursday at LIV Golf Singapore.

"My thoughts have always been we should just go off of our points list or our money list and have 15 guys from LIV be in all the majors, the top 15 from the year before.

"That's what I've always said. I've said it since day one."

A two-time Masters champion (2012, 2014), Watson knows a thing or two about how to win a major.

And while the paths created by the R&A and USGA have helped, Watson feels that an infusion of talent — yes, LIV talent — would go a long way toward getting eyeballs on the product.

"But this is a start. This is a start in the right direction, that people recognize that LIV is here to stay and that LIV is not going anywhere, and it's only getting better," he said.

"The majors are seeing that, and the majors realize for that one week that they have an event, they need us to join in there and play so we can get some media attention but also show how good LIV is and what team sport is all about."

The PGA Tour has banned LIV players from competing in its events since the latter's debut, save for majors. But LIV golfers do not receive Official World Golf Ranking points, thereby limiting their opportunities.
