Jon Rahm’s LIV exit set to trigger mass exodus of players from stricken tour

Jon Rahm is set to leave LIV Golf after his lawyer stated at a bankruptcy hearing on Wednesday that the terms proposed by the restructured LIV 2.0 tour are 'unacceptable.' LIV Golf filed for bankruptcy after Saudi Arabian funding was withdrawn, and Rahm's exit — from a tour he joined in 2023 — is expected to trigger a mass exodus of other big-name players, including Tyrrell Hatton. The development is seen as a major blow to LIV Golf's hopes of continuing as a viable operation.
