Jon Rahm will earn more money from LIV Golf than Tiger Woods has made in entire career
Jon Rahm has finished a rewarding change to LIV Golf, and the Spaniard will bring in additional cash from his arrangement with the breakaway circuit than symbol Tiger Woods has made across his celebrated lifetime
Jon Rahm, the Spanish genius, is set to procure more from his new agreement with LIV Golf than legend Tiger Woods has made in his whole golf vocation.
Rahm as of late turned into the furthest down the line enormous name to join LIV Golf, an opponent visit supported by Saudi Arabia’s Public Speculation Asset, in an arrangement that could be worth up to £450 million. Regardless of already communicating solid resistance to LIV Golf, Rahm will join the circuit for the 2024 season.
The move is viewed as a critical misfortune for both the PGA Visit and the Europe Ryder Cup group. Hypothesis about Rahm’s switch started when he was recognizably missing from passages to January’s American Express PGA Visit occasion.
PIF, the Saudi sovereign wealth fund that owns Newcastle United, was in charge of the negotiations. For a five-year commitment, Rahm is expected to receive a guaranteed fee of £240 million, which is double the former World No. 1 Dustin Johnson and triple what Creeks Koepka got when they left the PGA Visit in 2021.
Rahm’s amazing expense is about two times the all out prize cash won by 15-time significant champ Woods, who is the top-procuring golf player in history with around £96m acquired from 82 PGA Visit wins. Rahm will likewise get a stake in his own establishment in the group based association, which could merit an extra £200m.
Rahm has now changed his mind, despite his previous opposition to LIV Golf and his pledge to remain loyal to both the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour. Last year, he said: ” No doubt, cash is perfect… Could our way of life change assuming that I got $400 million? No. It wouldn’t transform the slightest bit.
“In all honesty, I could resign right now with what I made and I’d carry on with an extremely cheerful life and not play golf once more. I’ve never truly played the sport of golf for money related reasons. I play for the love of the game and I need to play against the best on the planet.
“I’ve forever been keen on history and inheritance and at this moment the PGA Visit has that. There’s an importance when you come out on top for the Commemoration title. There’s an importance when you win Arnold Palmer’s occasion Under control Slope. When you win LA, Torrey (Pines), and some of these historic venues, there is a meaning. That is very important to me.
“The PGA Tour is in my heart.”
The unexpected declaration in June that the two visits were examining a consolidation with PIF left players like Rahm feeling let down. This comes as PGA Visit magistrate Jay Monahan and PIF lead representative Yasir Al-Rumayyan are set to meet one week from now to examine an expected consolidation, with a last understanding cutoff time set for December 31st.
