With the LIV Golf 2024 season firmly in the bag now, attentions on the Saudi-backed tour will turn to 2025 and just how the team line ups will look.

We already know that there are going to be changes in some of the squads and after the relegation of certain players, spots have opened up.

Sergio Garcia has already admitted that the Fireballs will be acquiring a new player, while Jon Rahm has spoken about Legion XIII picking up someone new as well.

Of course, while new players will feel LIV is a huge opportunity, there are those losing their spots as well.

One of those players, Kieran Vincent, is a former teammate of Jon Rahm but has lost his automatic place at LIV after finishing in the bottom four this season.

However, Vincent is not giving up just yet and he’s headed to the Asia Tour to try and do well enough to regain his place back on LIV.

Kieran Vincent wants to return to LIV Golf after 2024 relegation

In quotes provided by The Mirror, Vincent admitted he’s definitely thinking about if he can get himself back involved on the LIV scene.

“I really enjoyed my time out there, especially with the group of guys that I had,” Vincent said.

“They just made it so awesome. If there is any way of being able to get back out there, why wouldn’t I do it? I want to do the best I can, and I always do but having the availability of six events which is more than half a season, and with two good weeks suddenly, things can change.

“That is definitely on the forefront of my mind. But it is also about figuring out how I can continue to keep getting better, and how I can continue to use what I have learned to help me get better. That is also something I am trying to do for the rest of the season.”

Unfortunately for Vincent, his brother was also part of the relegated players this season, meaning the duo are both in the same boat.

Currently, the player who finishes top of the International Series on the Asia Tour by the end of December will automatically earn a spot on the LIV tour.

As it stands, that man is John Catlin. Quite whether Vincent or anyone else can dislodge him, remains the big question.
