Jon Rahm is navigating uncertainty surrounding the future of LIV Golf as he aims to secure a third Irish Open title this week. The breakaway tour, backed by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, recently faced a significant setback when the fund withdrew its financial support. Organizers are currently seeking new investment amid these challenges. The 2026 LIV season ended prematurely, and last month the tour announced plans to reduce its operations. Many prominent players, including Rahm, are reportedly considering a return to the PGA Tour.

Rahm, who joined LIV Golf in December 2023, acknowledged the unsettled nature of the current situation. “To be fair for us people that joined LIV, I’m pretty good at dealing with turbulence,” he said. “There’s just a lot of things in place, right? There’s a lot of things that could happen and it’s one of those things where time’s going to tell.” When asked about a potential return to the PGA Tour, the two-time major champion responded, “We’ll see what happens.”

This week’s Irish Open is taking place at Doonbeg Golf Club in County Clare, a course owned by former U.S. President Donald Trump, who is expected to attend the event. Rahm is among a strong field that includes defending champion Rory McIlroy, who won the tournament last year at the K Club.

Looking further ahead, Rahm expressed his interest in representing Europe at next year’s Ryder Cup, scheduled to return to Irish soil at Adare Manor. The European team will be led by captain Luke Donald, who is returning to the role. Rahm, however, said the Ryder Cup was not yet a primary focus. “I wouldn’t say it’s that much on my mind yet,” he commented. “I understand why, being in Ireland, a lot of people are already looking forward to it. But I hope I’m representing Europe at Adare Manor.”
