Jon RAHM’s Makes Move to Liv Golf

Jon Rahm is the most recent prominent figure to leave the PGA Tour in favor of the Saudi Arabia-supported LIV Golf league, joining others like Brooks Koepka, Bryson DeChambeau, and Phil Mickelson in making this move.

Jon Rahm’s transition to LIV Golf has surprised the golf community, marking him as the latest notable golfer to shift from the PGA Tour to the Saudi Arabian-backed league in a deal reportedly valued at £450 million.

Moreover, Rahm is slated to secure a guaranteed fee of £240 million for committing to LIV for five years. This amount is twice the sum received by former World No. 1 Dustin Johnson and three times that of Brooks Koepka when they made the move to LIV from the PGA Tour in 2021.

Additionally, Rahm is poised to acquire a stake in his team, potentially valued at an additional £200 million. To put it in perspective, the earnings Rahm stands to make with LIV are roughly double the amount accumulated by 15-time major winner Tiger Woods through competition victories.

Woods holds the title of the highest-earning golfer in history, amassing approximately £96 million from 82 PGA Tour victories. Remarkably, with this single deal, Rahm is set to surpass the earnings of arguably the greatest golfer in history.
