LIV golf star Matthew Wolf is set to return to competition this week in the UK after a painful back injury forced him out for over a month. The 26-year-old Range Goats GC player had to withdraw just eight holes into Eliv Golf, Virginia in June. Later missing events in Dallas and Unlutzia at an Orai revealed Wolf had suffered an annular tear and a deep strain in the multipetus muscle along with signs of disc degeneration.

The Range Goats GC currently sit eighth out of 13 teams in the standings with just four events remaining in the season.
