The potential move of world No. 3 Jon Rahm to the Saudi-backed LIV Golf has sparked rumors and discussions in the golf world. This move could complicate the PGA Tour's deal with PIF and raise concerns about competition. There are reports of other Nike golfers, including Tiger Woods, possibly parting ways with Nike, with Woods' partnership potentially worth up to $500 million. The situation has led to debates about the financial motivations of athletes and the changing dynamics in the golf industry.

It would be stupid of Jon Rahm and other PGA holdouts not to take LIV handouts https://t.co/DlqsSSOKSG
⛳️ Jon Rahm looks like a hypocrite but he feels betrayed by PGA Tour @ricktimes says it is daft to cling on to the Spaniard’s comments from last year about ‘playing for love, not money’ after the PGA’s U-turn to partner the PIF https://t.co/qqgpMMze9j
Is choosing to be a fighter stupid? Strickland says it is. I get his point the roi on this is very low if you’re not a champion or social media star (which is .01% of the 1%) but it does give you the opportunity to do those things. Just thinking out loud what do the twidiots say?

On the Rahm situation - *if* he goes, it will make the PGA Tour-PIF deal even harder to get past the DOJ. Stealing Rahm is a sign of viable competition! Very possible that the silence is designed to see if a bigger deal gets done first (one that will compensate Rahm regardless).
