"We remain committed to the OWGR's mission, which requires honoring the meritocracy woven into the professional game," Immelman said in a statement. "As such, discussions have been regular and remain ongoing. To be clear, progress has been made, but there is no decision to share at this time. "We will continue to work closely with LIV Golf as it continues to evolve to ensure its application is handled with fairness, integrity and consistency, as stated previously."

"The most successful leagues around the world -- IPL, EPL, NBA, MLB, NFL -- continue to innovate and evolve their product, and as an emerging league, we are no different," LIV Golf League CEO Scott O'Neil said in a statement. "LIV Golf will always have an eye towards progress that acts in the best interest of LIV Golf and in the best interest of the sport."

The OWGR denied the first application in October 2023, stating it could not fairly measure LIV Golf with two dozen other tours around the world due to its closed shop and compromised individual competition.

Reed's third-place finish at the Masters bumped him to No. 49 in the world rankings, ensuring a spot in the upcoming PGA Championship.
