Henrik Stenson's PGA Tour ban expires at the end of August 2026, yardbarker.com reported. Stenson left LIV Golf in 2025 after relegation from the league and played his last LIV event on August 24, 2025. "Yeah, so from end of August, they removed my ankle bracelet, and I'll be out of that one-year probation," Stenson said.
He stated he will be reinstated as a PGA Tour member and free to play sanctioned tournaments starting August 25, 2026. Stenson said he will not return to the PGA Tour with any kind of status. He must qualify through the DP World Tour, qualifying school or Korn Ferry Tour to compete.
Stenson said he does not know if he will play a full schedule in 2027. He plans to play five, six or seven events on the back end of 2026 and may make the playoffs if he performs well. Stenson said he may limit his 2027 playing window to February 15 through October 15 to allow time at home.
