LIV previously enticed Dustin Johnson,Cameron Smith,Brooks Koepka,Marc Leishman and others from the PGA Tour with huge paydays,but adding Rahm - the No. 3 player in the world and an immensely popular player among fans - is a severe hit for the tour.
“LIV Golf is here to stay,” LIV COO Lawrence Burian said in a statement. “The addition of Jon reemphasises that our League is not slowing down. We are continuing to invest and build aggressively for LIV’s long-term and exciting future.”
