Jon Rahm's former LIV Golf teammate Kieran Vincent set for DP World Tour debut

Relegated LIV golfer Kieran Vincent is set to make his DP World Tour debut at the 2024 Mauritius Open. The Zimbabwean golfer played on the LIV Golf in 2024 after securing his spot through the 2023 LIV Golf Promotions. He played for Jon Rahm's Legion XIII.

Although the team had impressive stats in the 2024 season in the Suadi League, Vincent struggled in individual games and was ultimately relegated from the league. He finished the third season of LIV Golf ranked 54th in the season standings.

Kieran Vincent participated in the 2024 LIV Golf Promotions with hopes of securing a spot for the 2025 season but finished in 17th place, dashing his hope to be back on the LIV Golf next year.

However, Vincent will return to professional tournaments next on the DP World Tour. He is all set to make his debut on the European circuit at this week's Mauritius Open, which is scheduled to take place from December 19 to 22 at Mont Choisy Le Golf.

On Monday, December 16, Jon Rahm's Legion XIII shared a post on their X (formerly Twitter) account, talking about Vincent's departure from the LIV Golf.

"Kieran will be leaving #LegionXIII after relegation from @livgolf_league in the 2024 season. Kieran's hard work, talent and one-of-a-kind personality will be missed. It’s been an unforgettable year together! Thank you, Kieran."

Following the third season of the LIV Golf League, only the top 24 in the season standings secured their spots for the 2025 season. Those ranked from 25 to 48 fall into the "Open Zone," meaning they are free agents who can either be re-signed by their teams or join other teams. Players finishing below 49 fell into the "Drop Zone" and were relegated from the league.
