Sources - Thomas Pieters, Danny Lee, Brendan Steele to join LIV

Two more PGA Tour members and one of the best players on the DP World Tour are joining the LIV Golf League, sources told ESPN on Saturday.

DP World Tour star Thomas Pieters, ranked No. 34 in the Official World Golf Ranking, and past PGA Tour winners Danny Lee and Brendan Steele have signed up to join the LIV Golf League, which begins its second season in Mexico next week.

LIV Golf is expected to announce their additions when four more team rosters are unveiled Monday. Earlier this week, LIV Golf officially announced that PGA Tour members Mito Pereira and Sebastian Munoz were moving over.

Pieters, from Belgium, is the highest-ranked player among the newest additions. He has six international victories, including the 2021 Portugal Masters and 2022 Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship. He played for Europe in the 2016 Ryder Cup and tied for 16th in the men's golf competition at the 2021 Olympics in Tokyo.

While playing at the University of Illinois, Pieters won the 2012 NCAA individual championship at Riviera Country Club. Pieters, 31, expressed frustration on Twitter about not being invited to play in this week's Genesis Invitational at Riviera.
