More smoke from accounts who follow LIV (obviously biased) that Rahm is going to sign. We’ll see if anything picks up traction with legitimate sources in the next few days.

That fact that Rahm has been silent on it means it is probably happening

LIV social media accounts made a few posts about players & “next season” today & predictions.. could be nothing, but seems like something is coming

Xander, Hovland, Burns, Cantlay will be signing after Rahm’s confirms he signed paperwork yesterday.

Definitely interesting that the reports are Rahm wants his own team instead of playing with Sergio.

That would add at least 3 more spots to the 7 remaining spots, bringing us back up to 10.

I think they are adding two or three new teams this year. A Mexican or Latin American team maybe forming and the current team becomes Spanish.


Actually makes more sense now that Puig didn’t resign with Torque.. he’s from Spain & played college golf at Arizona State. He knew Rahm was coming & was making his own team.

May be why Ortiz didn’t resign with Fireballs too

Fleetwood to the Cleeks?

Honestly you could tell the PIF and HE were getting tired of the PGA et al bullshite when the OWGR pulled their foolishness. HE wants to hire most of the Euro Ryder Cup team minus Rory.

Spieth basically confirmed the rumors of the offer & that Rahm is seriously considering it, so I’d agree it seems likely Rahm is going to LIV.
quote:

“We really hope that he’s continuing with us,” Spieth said.
“I know there’s been some guys that have talked to him. I know he’s maybe weighing some decisions, maybe not. I really don’t know, so I don’t want to insult him and say he’s weighing decisions if he already knows he’s not or he is. You know, that’s somewhat out of my control in a way.”

“I’m not sure specifically how it would impact those negotiations, but all in all, Jon Rahm is one of the biggest assets we have on the PGA Tour,” Spieth added.

“So it would not be very good for us in general because we want to play against the best players in the world, and that’s what Jon is.”

No offense, but you’ve been posting crap rumors for 2 years about LIV. Rahm might happen but you guaranteed it a year ago and promised mega sponsorships for individual teams.

At least come with sources if you’re going to post rumors like this.

I particularly like this line.

No Jordan. You have no control on what Rahm decides to do.

I said it confirms that he is seriously considering the offer from LIV, it’s not just rumors.

Spieth wasn’t sure whether a decision has been made or not, so he didn’t want to assume Rahm is still weighing his options.

The rumor for the holdup appears to be that he announcing all of the new players to his new team when he announces.

This better happen otherwise "flushingit" might as well lock the doors.

LIV also has their promotions event going in Abu Dhabi this weekend (12/8-12/10).

Top 3 will earn a spot on LIV roster

Just announced that Puig will take the 4th spot on Fireballs
Rahm won’t have his compadre from Arizona State

ETA: I missed that Carlos Ortiz also signed with Torque.

So pretty much a trade between those 2 teams with those free agent signings.

Would make sense that those guys signed with a team once they learned Rahm has already filled his lineup

Well, big article today on Rahm to LIV in the WSJ. Basically says it appears there is an offer and that he is contemplating it.

Does mention that some think maybe this is a shot across bow by LIV/PIF to use as leverage in negotiations as deadline looms. We will see.
