US Open: Controversial LIV Star Qualifies, But Not Sergio Garcia
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. LIV Golf's Sergio Garcia is facing a tough reality, one that every Garcia fan saw coming. For the first time in 25 years, the Spaniard failed to qualify for the U.S. Open, marking his first absence since 2000. The news broke after the 45-year-old scored 71 at Bent Tree Country Club, missing out by just one shot from a playoff for a spot at Oakmont. While several golf analysts and experts have pushed for a special invitation to get Garcia into the field, there has been no official response. Meanwhile, another controversial LIV golfer had secured his place in the qualified list - Patrick Reed. Patrick Reed back into the U.S. Open Reed has never been one to shy away from controversy, whether on the PGA Tour or LIV Golf. His recent Masters performance made headlines as he challenged Rory McIlroy, finishing fourth behind Justin Rose and Bryson DeChambeau with a 9-under-par score. Despite his on-course success, his past disgressions continue to follow him. Yet, on Monday, Reed's LIV Golf team, 4Aces GC, proudly announced his qualification on X: "Patrick Reed will be attending the 2025 U.S. Open. #Qualified" Fans wasted no time branding him a "cheater." Patrick Reed will be attending the 2025 U.S Open. #Qualified ✅ — 4 Aces GC (@4AcesGC_) May 26, 2025 The allegations against Reed date back to his college days at the University of Georgia, where classmates allegedly accused him of cheating and stealing. The reputation stuck with him through his PGA Tour career, where he was called out for rule violations. Well, even now, he remains infamous for the same reasons. Nevertheless, Reed continues to play well and secured his U.S. Open spot by climbing into the top 60 of the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR), something Garcia failed to do. Once ranked second in the world, Garcia now sits below 400th position.

Three days after failing to qualify for Oakmont, Garcia prayed for a 'miracle' while expressing his emotion over his Instagram profile. "Unfortunately after failing to qualify on Monday by one shot, looks like my run of 25 consecutive U.S. Open Championships might come to an end this year, unless a little miracle happens." He ended the message saying, "Very proud of this amazing run that I had at this great Major!" Alongside his post, Garcia shared a throwback picture from his 2016 U.S. Open final round, where he finished fourth with scores of 68-70-72-70. That year, Dustin Johnson claimed victory (also at Oakmont), but Garcia still "felt it was good" and no doubt his recent post shouted the same.

Twelve years sober, a PGA pro arrives at his first major with a message
Rupe Taylor, a 35-year-old club pro from Virginia Beach, splashed across Quail Hollow on Monday morning, all alone aside from his caddie. He played through standing water on every hole, the only golfer braving the rain three days before the PGA Championship. At least that's what he thought before he ran into Patrick Reed on No. 12.

McIlroy and Scheffler in a group of Big Three at the PGA Championship
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Masters champion Rory McIlroy and world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler will be playing together in the opening two rounds of the PGA Championship, joined by defending champion Xander Schauffele in another group of the top three players in the world. It's the first time since 2022 the PGA Championship has grouped together Nos. 1-2-3 in the world ranking for the start of the tournament. It first was done at the U.S. Open in 2008 when Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and Adam Scott were grouped at Torrey Pines. 'I'm playing with two guys that are playing some of the best golf in the world,' Scheffler said. 'Xander won two majors last year, and Rory already won The Players and the Masters this year, so he's playing some fantastic golf. Yeah, it should be a lot of fun. 'I've seen that pairing before, and we have a good time out there, and it's competitive.' Another compelling draw: Jordan Spieth and Patrick Reed, joined by Ludvig Aberg. Spieth needs only the PGA Championship to complete the career Grand Slam and join an exclusive group that now includes McIlroy, who won the Masters for the final leg of the slam. Spieth and Reed formed a formidable partnership in the Ryder Cup in 2014 and 2016. That ended in 2018 when Spieth played with Justin Thomas, while Reed was partnered by Woods. Reed spoke to The New York Times after the Paris matches and blamed Spieth for them not playing together and U.S. captain Jim Furyk for twice leaving Reed on the bench. Reed, who joined LIV Golf in 2022, has not played in the Ryder Cup since then. What made them successful was that both were so competitive they tried to beat each other and wound up playing some of their best golf. This will be the first time they play together since the final round of The Players Championship four years ago. Spieth hasn't posted the better score the last eight times they have played together. They tied on two occasions. Justin Thomas, who won the PGA Championship the last time it was at Quail Hollow in 2017, is playing alongside Dustin Johnson and Collin Morikawa. Bryson DeChambeau is grouped with Gary Woodland and Viktor Hovland. The power group of Scheffler, McIlroy and Schauffele start on the 10th hole Thursday at 8:22 a.m., and on the first hole at 1:47 p.m. Friday. ___ AP golf:
