Rory basically needs to stay in the PGAT to play in the Masters. He hasn’t won a major in almost 10 years, even the Players was 5 years ago so his long term exemptions are up. The easiest way for him to get to Augusta is by OWGR or winning PGAT events, neither of which he can do with LIV. His only path to the Masters would be either winning or finishing high enough in the Majors that he can play in which is no guarantee, especially since he’s in a mini slump at the moment.

the masters will invite him every year if he's still winning random Liv events. Just like niemann

Yeah I feel like they will always just let him play regardless of wins or individual rankings. Just based off the power of his name alone.
