The DP World Tour, formerly the European Tour, has responded to a letter from sixteen LIV Golf series players who are threatening legal action after they were sanctioned for participating in the first event of the controversial Saudi-backed series in London.
In a statement shared with CNN, DP World Tour chief executive Keith Pelley said the letter, which was published in an exclusive report in The Telegraph, contained "so many inaccuracies" that it couldn't remain unchallenged.
Last week, the Tour fined the 16 players £100,000 ($121,230) each and banned them from several events, including the Scottish Open, for participating in the inaugural event of the LIV Golf series without receiving proper releases to do so.
