Jon Rahm Exits LIV Golf Over Unacceptable Terms Amid League Restructuring
Jon Rahm has decided not to participate in the proposed relaunch of LIV Golf, known as LIV 2.0, citing unacceptable terms. His lawyer, John Beck, announced this during LIV Golf's Chapter 11 bankruptcy hearing, where ongoing discussions about a separation agreement were also mentioned. LIV Golf, which filed for bankruptcy after losing Saudi Arabian financial backing, plans to restructure with a player-owned model and a smaller schedule for 2027. Rahm's exit marks a significant setback for the league's efforts to retain top players.
