Jon Rahm Says He Won't Be Part of the Next Version of LIV Golf

Rahm’s lawyer said the 31-year-old Spaniard reviewed LIV 2.0 terms and found them unacceptable as the league seeks player commitments for its restructuring.

  • On Wednesday, Jon Rahm's attorney John Beck announced at a U.S. Bankruptcy Court hearing that the two-time major champion will not participate in LIV 2.0, deeming the proposed terms "unacceptable."
  • The breakaway league filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in September after Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund withdrew support, forcing LIV to seek $300 million in financing from BC Partners Credit for its 2027 relaunch.
  • As LIV's largest unsecured creditor with over $100 million owed, Rahm is negotiating a separation agreement with the league, targeting finalization by October 15 with a November 5 court hearing if negotiations fail.
  • Spanish golfer David Puig announced Thursday he will join the DP World Tour next year, while LIV pro Adrian Meronk reportedly has "no intention of extending his contract" with the struggling league.
  • Bryson DeChambeau is reportedly exploring potential DP World Tour tournament appearances as the league faces critical pressure to retain remaining stars to satisfy BC Partners Credit's investment conditions for 2027 viability.
