Six-time major champion and former broadcaster Nick Faldo said that players who jumped to the upstart LIV Golf series should not be allowed to play in the Ryder Cup, saying "you've got to move on." "They're done," Faldo told Sky Sports News. "It's a rival tour.

If you work for a company for 20 years and you then leave to go to a rival company, I can promise you your picture won't still be on the wall.

You've moved on. Fine, off you go. "They made that decision and I'm sure they knew it was going to cost them," he added."They were playing the maths game.

They were getting a huge chunk of money up front, and they knew it was going to lose them sponsors, but they thought, 'I still win.'" Faldo played in 11 Ryder Cups in total between 1977 and 1997.
