- At a Dubai press conference, Rory McIlroy urged Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton to pay DP World Tour fines to regain eligibility for Team Europe in Ryder Cups.
- Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton were sanctioned after playing LIV Golf events while DP World Tour members, and both launched appeals in 2024 facing multi‑million fines threatening 2027 Ryder Cup eligibility.
- Answering if payment would help, Rory McIlroy, world No 2, said `absolutely` and argued the DP World Tour is `upholding` rules members agree to, recalling Team Europe’s past willingness to pay.
- Looking ahead to 2027, settling fines with the DP World Tour would clear the path for Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton’s selection for Team Europe, but unresolved appeals leave their participation uncertain.
- Last year, Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton helped Europe win at Bethpage Black while appealing DP World Tour fines, and Rory McIlroy said reunification remains unlikely despite some returns to the PGA Tour.
