Jon Rahm joins LIV Golf: What the shocking move means for the PGA Tour and the future of the sport
CBSN
Taking an in-depth look at the impact of Rahm's departure from the PGA Tour
Jon Rahm officially joined LIV Golf on Thursday, defecting from the PGA Tour in a move that has shaken the foundation of the sport. This stands as the biggest move LIV Golf has made, and completely changes the dynamics of professional golf for both leagues going into 2024.
Rahm is a two-time major winner, the current Masters champion, already a Ryder Cup legend and someone who has basically been stood as one of the top three players in the world since he turned pro in the summer of 2016. This past season, he won the Tournament of Champions, the American Express, the Genesis Invitational and the Masters.
The signing by LIV Golf comes just three weeks before a firm deadline for the PGA Tour and Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund to agree on some sort of deal. Such an accord would lead the PIF, which funds LIV Golf, to invest perhaps as much as 10 figures into the PGA Tour.
