Seems like the tides have seen a new high. Lately, the golf world has been thoroughly intrigued by the changing sides in the professional realm. Jon Rahm has been raking the headlines for speculations around him switching to the rumored $600 million LIV Golf turf. While the claims haven’t met a confirmed end yet, players and Rahm’s peers have been hinting at a move.

Questions around Jon Rahm’s uncharacteristic silence amid LIV Golf rumors

In the recent series of off-court events in the world of golf, sports writer Kyle Porter took to his X handle to share some of his observations and comments on the whole fiasco surrounding Jon Rahm and the LIV Golf move. As per the writer’s assertion, the silence with which the player has been dealing with the rumors is unlike him. 

Porter wrote: “I have no idea whether Jon Rahm is or is not headed to LIV. What I do know is that he’s issued statements of denial in the past for much quieter rumormongering and reporting that has taken place over these last two weeks.”
