PGA Tour Faces Uncertainty as Jon Rahm Considers $600M LIV Golf Offer

Tiger Woods and Jordan Spieth express concern over potential impact on PGA Tour as Dec. 31 agreement deadline looms.

Jon Rahm, the reigning Masters champion and world's No. 3-ranked player, is reportedly weighing an offer of around $600 million to sign with the Saudi-backed league, LIV Golf.
PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan said earlier this week that a Dec. 31 deadline to finalize an agreement along with the Public Investment Fund and the DP World Tour remains a firm target.
Tiger Woods, who had no knowledge of the framework agreement at the time of the announcement in June, has since joined the PGA Tour's Policy Board as a player director.
Jordan Spieth, who is tied for the lead at Albany Golf Club, acknowledged that losing Rahm to LIV would be a big blow to the PGA Tour.
Rahm also recently pulled out of the Woods- and McIlroy-backed TGL, citing the time commitment, although the league has since delayed its debut until 2025 after the roof of its facility collapsed and caused damage.
