LIV Golf Dallas presented by Aramco is the final tournament prior to determining which LIV Golf player will earn an exemption into next month's Open Championship at Royal Portrush.
In February, The R&A announced its new qualification category, utilizing LIV Golf's season-long Individual Championship standings. The highest-ranked player, not otherwise exempt, inside the top five of the standings after Dallas will receive a spot in the final major of the 2025 golf season.
The top three players in the standings entering Dallas are already exempt — Joaquin Niemann, Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm.
No. 4 in the standings is Fireballs GC Sergio Garcia, who is not exempt and will tee off hoping to maintain his status in the standings. Garcia, a two-time LIV Golf winner including victory earlier this year in Hong Kong, is looking to make his 26th start in The Open and 102nd start in a major in his legendary career. Garcia has 10 top-10 finishes in the Open, including runner-up results in 2007 and 2014.
Less than seven points behind Garcia in the standings is Ripper GC's Lucas Herbert in fifth place. Herbert has made four Open starts, including a tie for 15th in 2022. He was instrumental last year at Maridoe in helping Ripper win the Team Championship.
Also within 10 points of Garcia is Torque's Sebastián Muñoz, whose last appearance at the Open was in 2022. Munoz has been one of the league's most consistent players this season, with top-20 finishes in six of eight tournaments. A year ago at Maridoe, he led all players in scoring in the final round, shooting a 64 on a course that he's very familiar with.
With 40 points given to a LIV Golf individual winner, a total of 10 players currently without an exemption remain mathematically eligible to overtake Garcia in the standings — Herbert, Muñoz, Dean Burmester, David Puig, Charl Schwartzel, Anirban Lahiri, Adrian Meronk, Thomas Pieters, Talor Gooch and Abraham Ancer.
