The DP World Tour has won its legal battle against LIV players and will be able to sanction them for playing in conflicting events without permission, according to reports.

A three-strong arbitration panel heard five days of arguments from lawyers for a group of 13 LIV Golf players and those representing the DP World Tour in February in an attempt to clarify the playing status of the former on the latter.
