PGA Tour urged to deny Jon Rahm's return in 2027 following LIV exit

Summary

Jon Rahm is set to play on the DP World Tour in 2027 after confirming his departure from LIV Golf, with his immediate future in the PGA Tour uncertain. Analyst Taylor Zarzour recommended that the PGA Tour make Rahm complete a year on the DP World Tour, arguing it would strengthen ties with that circuit. Rahm's recent successes, including a second major championship in 2023, have sparked debate about his ability to return to the PGA Tour sooner. The PGA Tour's Returning Member Program previously allowed players like Brooks Koepka to rejoin after leaving, but current sentiments suggest a different approach for Rahm's case. LIV Golf's declining status may influence the PGA Tour's decisions regarding former players like Rahm.
