The 2018 Masters champion decided against re-signing with LIV Golf and instead has committed to joining the TOUR once his one-year ban is over. Unlike Brooks Koepka, Reed didn’t qualify for the Returning Members Program—no major wins or PLAYERS title from 2022-2025—so he couldn’t come back right away.

However, since the Genesis Scottish Open in July is a co-sanctioned event by the TOUR and DP World Tour, Reed will be eligible to tee it up at the Renaissance Club. Both circuits confirmed this to bunkered.co.uk.
Reed is an honorary lifetime member of the DPWT and will play across the pond throughout the year before coming back stateside. In his three starts so far this season, he’s finished 26th at the Dubai Invitational, first at the Hero Dubai Desert Classic, and second at the Bahrain Championship. And through one round of this week’s Qatar Masters, Reed is tied for first.
