Korean Golf Club revealed on Monday that Danny Lee will transition to a wild-card position for what remains of the LIV Golf season.
Doyeob Mun, who currently leads the KPGA Tour Genesis points standings, will take Lee’s place in the roster for no fewer than the upcoming two tournaments, which includes this week’s competition in South Korea.
“We are excited for Doyeob to join the KGC family,” Korean GC shared Monday on X, noting that Mun will be formally presented during a team press conference on Tuesday.
The 34-year-old Mun participates in competitions on both the KPGA Tour and Asian Tour circuits.
This week’s LIV Golf Korea tournament kicks off Thursday at Asiad Country Club in Busan.
Korean GC’s remaining roster includes captain Byeong Hun An, along with Younghan Song and Minkyu Kim. The squad sits at the bottom of the 13-team LIV Golf standings.
The 35-year-old Lee captured the 2015 Greenbrier Classic during his PGA Tour career and claimed victory at the LIV Golf Tucson tournament in 2023, achieving the win in only his second event after joining the circuit. This season, Lee’s top performance across seven LIV Golf tournaments was a T32 finish at Adelaide in February.
