Following his departure from LIV Golf, Jon Rahm has expressed openness to a PGA Tour return under conditions similar to those accepted by Brooks Koepka. Rahm, currently preparing for the DP World Tour Playoffs in Abu Dhabi, indicated that while his 2027 season remains uncertain, he is prepared to play exclusively on the DP World Tour next year if a return to the PGA Tour involves a one-year suspension. His comments come amid significant instability for LIV Golf, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in September following the loss of Saudi funding.
