Schofield: don’t desert Europe

FORMER European Tour chief executive Ken Schofield has called for players not to forget their roots in the search for more money in America.

Bigger cash prizes, and the availability of more world ranking points, have lured many stars to the PGA Tour but Schofield said the future of European golf and the Ryder Cup depended on them committing to play on this side of the Atlantic.

"Golf is an international game. It always has been and always must be," Schofield told delegates at GolfEx Dubai.
