DP World Tour negotiates return of LIV golfers ahead of deadline

Summary

The DP World Tour is reportedly negotiating terms with several golfers looking to exit LIV contracts. Jon Rahm has recently announced his departure from LIV, citing unacceptable terms in LIV 2.0. This development comes as LIV faces a looming deadline for golfers to renew contracts by October 25. The DP World Tour could offer opportunities for former LIV players, although exemptions will not include Rolex Series events at this time. A DPWT representative noted high interest from potential returnees, pending their release from existing contractual obligations.
