DUBAI — As the golf world continues to navigate its fractured landscape, former Masters champion Patrick Reed expressed openness to a potential return to the PGA Tour—if the pathway were ever extended to him.

Reed, who is currently playing a three-event DP World Tour swing in the Middle East, was asked about the newly created Returning Member Program that facilitated Brooks Koepka's return to the PGA Tour. The program only applies to players who won a major or The Players Championship between 2022 and 2025, a window that excludes Reed's 2018 Masters victory.

“I mean, of course; if it were up to me, I'd play everywhere,” Reed said Saturday at the Dubai Invitational. “I'm already playing on three tours, why not add one more? ... I always enjoyed my time out there on the PGA Tour. Let's be honest, out there, it's the best tour in the world.”

Reed, 35, maintained a grueling 32-event schedule across LIV Golf, the DP World Tour, and the Asian Tour in 2025. His commitment to the DP World Tour is particularly costly; he expects to pay fines for each LIV event that conflicts with a DP tournament this season, as LIV will no longer cover those penalties.

“I always plan on showing my support on this tour, and it's not going to stop me,” said Reed, who holds honorary life membership on the European circuit. “If that's what it takes, that's what it takes.”

While a return to the PGA Tour remains hypothetical, Reed's comments underscore the fluidity of the professional game and the desire among some LIV players to compete across tours. For now, his focus is on maintaining his world ranking (No. 41) through global play and building momentum for another Masters run, where he has finished T-4 and T-3 in the last two years.
