Jon Rahm and Sergio García’s Ryder Cup Futures Clouded by LIV Golf Controversy

Rahm remains determined to compete at Bethpage while backing García’s return despite ongoing sanctions and eligibility uncertainties.

Jon Rahm has reaffirmed his commitment to playing for Team Europe in the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, despite facing sanctions from the DP World Tour over his participation in LIV Golf events.
Rahm is appealing fines and penalties imposed by the DP World Tour, which could impact his eligibility to retain membership and compete in the Ryder Cup later this year.
Sergio García, who rejoined the DP World Tour in November after paying over €1 million in fines, also faces uncertainty regarding his Ryder Cup participation due to his prior resignation from the tour.
Rahm has publicly advocated for García’s inclusion on the European Ryder Cup team, praising his skill and potential impact despite García’s controversial switch to LIV Golf in 2022.
Both players must navigate complex eligibility requirements and scheduling challenges to secure their places on the European team for the highly anticipated Ryder Cup in September.
