Masters champion Jon Rahm said the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR) is not “a good system” after LIV Golf withdrew its application to join.

A letter from the league’s CEO Greg Norman told players it will not pursue its bid for world ranking points.

“It’s now clear that the best way forward for LIV as a league and LIV golfers is not through the current ranking system,” Norman said.

The Saudi-backed league was denied OWGR accreditation in October.

Two-time major winner and world number three Rahm is among the players to have switched from the PGA Tour to LIV Golf.
