There are few harsher setbacks in professional sport than relegation, but Scott Vincent refused to let it define him. After spending three seasons with LIV golf and being part of the breakaway league since its launch in 2022, Vincent’s run came to a sudden halt when he finished in the drop zone in 2024. For the Zimbabwean, it was a bitter blow. Instead of competing in the game’s richest events, he found himself back on the grind of the Asian Tour, forced to rebuild his career. Remarkably, he did exactly that. Following a strong campaign capped by a standout performance at this month’s PIFF Saudi International, Vincent was crowned the International Series Rankings Champion, a title that secured his return at Alive E Golf for the 2026 season. With that, here in another shot at teeing it up in some of the world’s most lucrative tournaments, once again going head-to-head with some of golf’s biggest stars. Reflecting on his road back, Vincent admitted that shifting his mindset away from simply trying to regain LIIV status proved crucial. At the start of the year, LIIV is a possibility, he told Bunkerco.uk. But it’s so rare that it’s not at the forefront of your mind like, hey, this is what we want to do. It’s like, “No, let’s just focus on the process and we’ll see where that puts us.” That focus paid off. The process led him right back onto the LIV roster. Amazing year. Just amazing, he said. It’s very cool that focusing on the process and just trying to get better worked. Even after a bad year with LIIV, it just turned completely in our favor. While tensions between LIIV, the PGA Tour, and the DP World Tour continue, LIIV’s partnership with the Asian Tour has strengthened significantly. Late in the year, it was announced that the top two performers on the International Series would earn LIIV playing rights for 2026. Vincent being one of those beneficiaries. The Asian Tour has worked out amazing for me, the 33-year-old explained. I think it’s really cool for the Asian tour and how the partnership is working out and how it’s growing. There’s a definite pathway now. It’s completely elevated so many of the events on the Asian Tour and the strength of players is improving each and every year. It’s very noticeable. It’s cool to see because it forces a lot of players to find ways to get better. Vincent has been part of LIIV since day one, competing in its inaugural event at Centurion in the summer of 2022. He admits that back then he didn’t fully grasp what the league would eventually become. I didn’t even fully understand what we were playing in and what it was all about. He said, “Looking where it is now, it’s solidifying itself as a league, and it’s continued to evolve as any new business. It’s going more international to pockets of the world that don’t typically see these best players live and up close. One of LIV’s most significant changes came recently. The announcement that the league will shift from 54 holes to the traditional 72-hole format starting in 2026. Although Vincent is familiar with the three round structure, he welcomes the switch. It is a big change. It’s kind of weird to think it’s gone from where it was to where it is now because that was one of the things that really was a huge difference. He said, “From my side, it’s great. Kind of young, strong, fit. I think four rounds of golf just adds a bit more of a physical element to it. It’s back to what golf has always been. I’m looking forward to it. I got to get myself physically ready for it.” Vincent hopes to carry his excellent 2025 Asian tour form into his LIIV return. Beyond his work with coaches and his team, he credits much of his success through his Christian faith, something he describes as central to his life. It’s a big compass for me, he said. I have to go back to that compass daily to get reentered and redirected. For me, it’s literally everything. Looking ahead, the Zimbabwean knows exactly what he wants to improve as he prepares to compete with the likes of John Rom and other LIIV heavyweights. I think the part that I want to improve the most is just getting comfortable in those uncomfortable situations and a little more relaxed being around certain people. He admitted a lot of those weeks and a lot of those shots are just going to feel like they’re so much bigger than they need to be. Trying to improve in those situations like, hey, it’s just a golf shot here. How can I keep it as simple as that? I think those are the areas that would make the biggest difference for next year.
