Branden Grace has certainly faced difficult moments accepting that he will no longer be part of LIV Golf, but he knows he must move forward. The South African golfer was relegated after the conclusion of the third season, along with a few other colleagues. As LIV Golf fans know, there are ways for individuals to return to the tour, but Grace will have a tough task ahead.

One option is to secure a spot on LIV Golf through the Asian Tour, but it remains to be seen how realistic that goal is for him. Interestingly, the South African golfer will still be able to participate in LIV Golf promotions in December. In a recent media interview, he mentioned that he has several plans in mind, but promotional events are clearly a priority for him.
The 36-year-old golfer is aware that he is the primary reason for his current situation, as his performances on the Saudi-backed tour have been far from what he desired. At times, the South African looked lost on the golf course and struggled to find his rhythm, and now he feels the consequences of it all. However, his talent and abilities are undeniable, and fans believe that Grace can make a comeback in style.

It seems that this talented golfer will be greatly missed by his team, Stinger GC, which consists of four South African players.

Branden has stressed that it would be fantastic if he could return to the team.
The 37-year-old has highlighted that his teammates continue to support him, believing in him. They share great chemistry, especially since they live in the same country. Grace respects his teammates and captain, wanting to be part of this exciting journey again. It will be interesting to see what the next season of LIV Golf brings without a few key names, as teams will need to find solutions for those who are no longer around.
