LIV Golf League's English veteran lan Poulter (pictures) is confident the rising stars on the Asian Tour are benefitting from the "extra pressure" they are feeling when playing for high stakes on The International Series.
The set of 10 elevated events on the Asian Tour offers a direct pathway onto the LIV Golf League and Poulter, co-captain of the Majesticks GC team, has seen first-hand the talent from all around the world emerging from this route.
Zimbabwe's Scott Vincent and American Andy Ogletree are on the IronHeads GC and HyFlyers GC teams respectively after winning The International Series Rankings race in 2022 and 2023. Vincent impressed with a top 24 Lock Zone finish in his first season, and Ogletree has shown his capabilities with a T3 in Adelaide and T6 last time out in England.
Scott's younger brother Kieran has been on the winning team for Legion XIII four times this season after gaining his place in a nerve-jangling playoff at the LIV Golf Promotions event last season, where over 30 players from The International Series Rankings and Asian Tour were part of the 74-man field battling it out for three golden tickets.
