Nicolai was replaced by twin brother Rasmus after he qualified through the ranking system.
Rasmus turned professional in 2019, making his mark by winning the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open the same year.

Rasmus has gone on to collect five European Tour wins so far, including notable victories such as the 2020 ISPS Handa UK Championship, 2021 Omega European Masters and 2023 Made in Himmerland in Denmark.
The twin brothers hold the record for being the first siblings to win European Tour events in back-to-back weeks.
Rasmus missed the 2023 Ryder Cup due to injury, but will be keen to make amends at this year’s event.

When is the Ryder Cup 2025 on?
The Ryder Cup is a biennial competition between teams from the US and Europe.
The 2025 edition starts on Friday, 26 September and lasts for three days, taking place at Bethpage Black, Farmingdale, New York.
Friday features foursomes and fourball matches, with Saturday following a similar format, while Sunday consists of twelve singles matches.
Taking a break from the more impartial approach of previous years, NBC has announced a special guest broadcaster for this year’s Ryder Cup coverage.
NBC’s lead golf producer Tommy Roy boasted about how its presenters and pundits will be very unabashedly partisan towards the Team US.
He also revealed that English great and five-time Ryder Cup winner Nick Faldo will be back in the booth at Bethpage Black.
