Brandel Chamblee has shared a strong message regarding PGA Tour players wanting Jon Rahm back on the circuit. The Spaniard shocked the golf world by joining LIV Golf in late 2023. He competed on the Saudi circuit in 2024 amid ongoing negotiations between the two leagues. However, some Tour players reportedly wanted him back on the American circuit.
A fan on X (formerly Twitter) mentioned the PGA Tour’s hope for Rahm’s return. Chamblee reshared the fan’s comment and wrote:
“Some may want them back but they definitely don’t need them back.”
Amid the merger talks between LIV Golf and the PGA Tour last September, Bloomberg reported that some PGA Tour players want Rahm back on the series. Underdog Golf shared the news on its X.
“Update on PGA Tour-PIF negotiations (via @Bloomberg): (1) “A particular sticking point is Jon Rahm’s reported $300 million LIV contract…some PGA Tour players want Rahm – and others – to hand back money” (2) “Other issues include getting PGA Tour players to agree to tour the world to participate in LIV Golf events”” the post read.
