Transcript

Have got some massive breaking news in the golf world that we have to talk about. Jon Rahm is officially returning to the PGA Tour, but this will come with some pretty hefty repercussions. Jon will be required to make a $25,000,000 donation to charity. He will also be required to make an announcement that he's leaving LIV Golf and verbatim say that he's returning to traditional golf. He will also not be eligible for signature events unless he plays his way into them and sponsors exemptions exemptions are unavailable as well. So we're virtually seeing the exact same thing that five tier major champion Brooks Koepka went through when he left lift golf to return to the PGA Tour. Except Koepka's donation to charity was 5,000,000 whereas Jon Rahm's is 25,000,000. There's also reports now swirling that Jon Rahm's close friend and teammate, Terrell Hatton, will also be looking for a deal to return to the PGA tour. And I think we all know that LivGolf has been circling the dream, but to hear that players are actually returning to the PGA Tier makes it feel real. We've got news now that CEO of LiveGolf, Scott O'Neil, will address the media tomorrow to discuss the league's future. And if you want to stay up to date on everything happening in the golf world, follow for more. But I would love to hear your thoughts on the demands that Jon Rahm must complete to return to the PGA Tier.
