Jon Rahm is one of the biggest golf stars in the planet and his controversial move from the PGA to LIV Golf left everyone stunned back in December of 2023. People said that the money was the thing that attracted him and other golfers, as everyone knows that it is a Saudi-backed circuit.

With that said, it seems that his roots could come into play in order to maintain his status, at least that is what is being reported. Sources have said that the Spaniard might be regretting his move and is now thinking of going back to the PGA after only eight months.

It was a $500 million deal to abandon the PGA Tour according to sources and now an insider is claiming that the two-time major winner is already having second thoughts about his defection.

The leader of LIV Golf has spoken on the matter

Greg Norman, the CEO of the newly famed LIV Golf circuit has stated his thoughts on this report. "I am 100 percent positive that if Jon could give the money back to the Saudis and come back to the tour, he couldn't write the check fast enough," the unnamed source claimed.

During the second round of LIV Golf Greenbrier Saturday, the boss spoke loud and clear. "I read an article yesterday about how Jon is so unhappy here (LIV Golf) and that he wants to give back his money," Norman said via Golf Magic. "It's just not true."

But he was not done, as he explained that this is a 'laughable' situation. "You speak to Jon's general manager, it's like laughable. I just truly don't get it. I truly don't get the divide," he said and at least for now Jon Rahm is not going anywhere.
