Jose Maria Olazabal Critiques Jon Rahm's LIV Golf Decision Amid Ranking Concerns

News summary

Jose Maria Olazabal has expressed concerns regarding Jon Rahm's decision to join LIV Golf, questioning its impact on his preparation for major tournaments. Despite Rahm's significant financial gain from the move, Olazabal believes it may hinder his competitiveness and legacy in golf, particularly after Rahm's disappointing performances in recent majors, including a tie for 45th at the Masters and missing the cut at the PGA Championship. Olazabal respects Rahm's choice but is surprised given Rahm's previous commitment to the PGA Tour and potential for historic achievements. He emphasizes that the LIV Golf format, with fewer events and no cuts, differs greatly from traditional competitions, which may affect players' readiness for high-stakes tournaments. Olazabal, a two-time Masters champion, remains skeptical about Rahm's ability to excel in majors while participating in LIV Golf. He acknowledges Rahm's determination but suggests that the player's path has become more challenging due to his recent choices.
