(Reuters) - Sweden's Henrik Stenson is happy to sit back and wait for the DP World Tour to make a decision on his Ryder Cup future, the former British Open champion said on Tuesday.

Stenson was due to captain Team Europe at last year's Ryder Cup, but was stripped of the role after agreeing to sign up for the Saudi-backed LIV Golf circuit in 2022. He was replaced by Luke Donald, who led Team Europe to victory over the U.S. in Rome.
