Reed indicated at the PIF Saudi International Open he desire to kick-start his 2025 season in the January 16th commencing Dubai event where two years ago lost out by a shot to McIlroy.
Though the LIV golfer and DP World Tour Life Member, in speaking with him in Riyadh was worried he may be facing DP World Tour suspenseion from the Dubai event given he was competing in an Asian Tour event.

Reed said in December: “My intention at this stage is to return to Dubai early next year but it will depend on what the DP World Tour decides whether or not it is going to suspend their members like me from competing on the Asian Tour.
“It’s kind of annoying wondering as a life member whether or not I will be allowed to play on the DP World Tour.
“Personally, I feel if you have earned the right to play on a particular Tour, as I have in being a life member, then you should be approved to play where I choose to play”.
It seems that common sense has prevailed hence Reed’s name on the entry list for the $9.2m Rolex Series event.
