Jon Rahm voices no regrets over LIV Golf switch

Jon Rahm said he holds no regrets about joining LIV Golf nearly two and a half years after the move. Speaking ahead of the 2026 PGA Championship, the two-time major winner addressed the uncertain future of the league.

Rahm made his comments Tuesday at Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania. He told reporters he never joined LIV to help force a unification deal with the PGA Tour. The Spaniard added that changing circumstances after his decision, including the Saudi Public Investment Fund’s planned withdrawal of support after the 2026 season, remain an afterthought rather than a source of regret.
