There is a lot to said about this rumour and we are getting so close to the start of the LIV golf season and Jon Rham has NO TEAM
If he has a brain he should join LIV in a heartbeat if offered. The PGA is in freefall and their sponsors, the people that pay the bills, are slowly going to dry up because the PGA and DP World talent pool is diminishing as we speak.
No way is he going. Needs to sit back and think about where he’s going with the PGAT. The Players. The Masters .
Watch this space though. Viktor Hovland in final stage of signing. Also Anthony Kim. Two BIG signings.
Yeah I wouldn't be playing for free and stuffing the pockets of the PGAT and all the media. Go bank out and be with Rahmbo baby
IF….. I was in his shoes….. take the 1st place money… turn professional and play the PGA…. Your dream has just begun… you can always finish school. You are in the seat now young man,, go ahead ask TIGER if anybody. Have a conversation with him….. you’ll be pleasantly surprised of what he’ll “ADVISE” of a decision……. It’s really what you’ve wished for all you life…. GO GET IT CHAMP…. You are that good!!!!⛳️👍🏆🥇💰
When it comes to comparing history, pga tour events (as of now) do not mean nearly what they used to. And Liv wins continue to climb in value.
The comparison he is really thinking about is obviously majors —although those are meaning a little less lately as well. But his fear, as with all those other pros mentioned, is being kept out of majors thanks to the OWGRs extremely questionable decision not to grant LIv points.
This guy has 3 majors guaranteed for this year no matter what. But going to LIv makes the Open almost impossible to make (of course he can go through qualifying but we all know players of this caliber should not have to do that).
So anyways, for the owgr reason LIv is tough, but possible if the kid can see the writing on the wall.
Either LIv or pga tour he would make a ton of money before the NCAA championships. So the more pertinent question is whether to turn pro or not.
I’m sure they have a Terrific chance at the NCAA chip, and I’m sure he is having a great time, but is that enough to continue leaving This kind of money on the table?
Ironically Lefty is the one man whom can relate to all of this. Phil might even say stay in college. I’m not sure I could, because like he said, his dreams are in the pros—not college.
If LIV is interested in Dunlap they seriously need 2 take a look at that Micheal Thorgheorin what ever guy! I think he is a senior at Stanford? #3 or#4 am. inthe world. good looking and has maybe the best swing EVER! Finished 11th at the Dubri Desert Classic. He beat Hatton face 2 face on Friday or Saturday? Can get him 4 alot less than $50,000,000?
He's in a great place that he earned on the course if it's about $$$ then LIV makes sense. If he is serious about chasing records then he would join Major tour because he would have immediate access to most of the majors
Interesting position for him. Technically him not having joined the PGA yet, means he wont be defecting when going to LIV. There is no membership for the PGA Tour to cancel. So he could go to LIV and stil play events that he qualified for with his win that fall outside of the LIV schedule or on non LIV weeks. Effectively getting best of both worlds. I mean het gets entry for 2 years even if keeping his amateur status.
There is a risk that after this huge achievement, he turns pro, join the tour and end up not becoming much more than just an average Tour player. Or he can join LIV as arguably the best amateur golfer who just achieved something no other amateur could do in 33 years, earn a nice signing bonus and play for massive purses. And double dip on the PGA Tour if he wants.
I certainly hope he doesn't screw his life up by going to LIV
2:54 3:03 3:06 😢
Dunlap to LIV, would be a bad idea and sad and doubt he would do that!
If this kid is offered anything over 50 million if he doesnt take it shame on him…. I am sure will zalatoris is regretting his decision
Gone to LIV. Would be a smart decision as he's already in most of the majors this year and LIV will get owgr points shortly along with players allowed to play on both tours.
I believe Rahm has a team, just not announced yet. Why Dunlap…he's not even started a pro career. Maybe they can offer him $5 mil but no more…he has not proofed his worth more than that yet.
Puig better my opinion !! Puig was crazy in Asia latter part last year ! He and Oleson should be at Masters!!
He has great talent. And turning pro would be a no brainer. He's won on PGA, and is exempt to play in signature events.
LIV clutching at straws. Grab anyone, albeit on the face of it could be a superstar. Or maybe a comet.
Wasn't bryson a 58 not 59
Definitely turn pro ! He’s much better off driving a Bentley to his next tournament, rather than having his sticks strapped to a BMX ! 👍
Same management company (LIV) your on to something. However, chasing Tiger makes it 50/50
LIV..Like the blues brother…how much for the boy…😅
No
Did you know Meronk has joined LIV
You have missed the scoop. Next name to LIV is out.
Nick's historical win is the type that LIV cannot emulate right now, and probably never will. However, it is also a 'juicy fruit' for the media to squeeze dry with their rumour mongering regarding PGA/LIV future for Nick. All a bit boringly predictable really.
liv has to be the biggest loss leader in sport…no one watches on telly, there is no prestige in winning one of their 3 round events, but you do get a buket load of personal dosh for playing what is basiscally pro am golf.
Nick liked liv and said a while ago that he would like to play on liv but after his win that might have changed !
Told you he wasn't joining LIV
