LIV Golf winner Grace added to Scottish Open | Poulter: Legal bid 'Right decision'

Recent LIV Golf Invitational Series winner Branden Grace is among four DP World Tour players from the Saudi-backed circuit added to the field for this week’s Genesis Scottish Open.

DP World Tour members who played in the opening LIV Golf tournament at the Centurion Club were initially given a £100,000 fine and banned from this week's event co-sanctioned with the PGA Tour, who suspended its members indefinitely for featuring on the rival tour.

Suspensions imposed were temporarily lifted following a hearing before Sport Resolutions (UK) on Monday, with the DP World Tour releasing a statement confirming Ian Poulter, Adrian Otaegui and Justin Harding would be allowed to tee it up at The Renaissance Club.

The draw was released on Tuesday ahead of the event getting under way on Thursday, with Grace - also a DP World Tour member - the fourth LIV Golf named as part of an expanded 160-man field.

The quartet will be sent out in two balls and as the first groups either side of the draw, with Harding and Otaegui the first out on Thursday at 7.15am and Poulter alongside Grace at the same time on Friday.

Grace was part of the Stinger Team that won the team competition at the inaugural event in England, before claiming a two-shot victory and $4m first prize in the individual competition at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club in Portland.
