Report: Jon Rahm staying with LIV Golf despite PGA Tour path

By Thomson Reuters Jan 13, 2026 | 1:09 PM

Jon Rahm will remain with LIV Golf and not follow Brooks Koepka’s return to the PGA Tour, the ‍Spanish golf outlet Ten Golf reported.

The 31-year-old Spaniard made his LIV Golf debut in February 2024. As a two-time major winner, Rahm is eligible for the PGA Tour’s new member reinstatement ‌program.

The former World No. 1 won ‌the U.S. Open in 2021 and the Masters in 2023. As the captain of LIV Golf’s Legion XIII, he has won two individual tournament ​titles (both in 2024).

LIV Golf stars Cam Smith and Bryson DeChambeau also meet the ‍criteria to return to ​the PGA Tour, having won a ​major between 2022-25 and spent at least two ‍years away from the tour.

DeChambeau told Flushing It Golf recently that he is still making a decision about his future.

“I’m not going to share too much, but the ‍conversations (on his future) are in process. We have to get to a place where both parties ‍have a ‍good understanding of one another,” ​DeChambeau said.

“It is getting to a ​place ⁠that makes sense for both ‌sides. …You never know. Life throws curveballs and, obviously, we saw (Koepka leave) and that was quite a shock to a lot of people and something that, you know, it is what it is.”
