Mike Weir Will Not Pick Any LIV Golfers For International Presidents Cup

International Presidents Cup captain Mike Weir is unable to select golfers competing in the LIV Golf Series for his team in September.

This decision by the PGA Tour, which administers the Presidents Cup, weakens the International team's chances against the strong US squad. Top players like Joaquin Niemann, Cameron Smith, and Louis Oosthuizen are unavailable due to their affiliation with LIV Golf.

Limited Roster for Weir

While Weir expresses his desire for the best players to compete, the PGA Tour's stance restricts his options. He has a strong core of PGA Tour players like Tom Kim and Jason Day, but the absence of LIV stars creates a significant gap.

Hope for Future Inclusion

Weir remains optimistic about future inclusion of LIV players but must currently focus on building team spirit and strategy with the available roster.

The Internationals aim to break the US team's nine-year dominance in the biennial competition. This year's challenge seems steeper due to the player restrictions.

Remaining Questions

The ongoing rivalry between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf casts a shadow over the upcoming Presidents Cup. Whether a solution can be found to allow for the participation of all top players remains to be seen.
