Rahm watched Scottie Scheffler's comeback win at The Players but was not in the event after moving to LIV Golf.
It hasn’t been easy for Jon Rahm. He’s one of the three best players in the world, but above all, he’s one of the biggest golf nerds and obsessives around. So since his massive move to the Saudi-funded LIV league in December, he’s had to watch the PGA Tour events he carries such reverence for on TV. And that also meant not having a chance to defend his titles at the Sentry, the American Express, and the Genesis Invitational.
— The Masters Missing PGA Tour events and playing against the best fields was a consistent theme in Rahm’s comments, although he steadily said he’s enjoyed LIV events, the team format and going to locations like Hong Kong. He joked that he knows Scheffler’s form and doesn’t need to tee up with him to inform his opinion. But he acknowledged the added relevance to majors over either tour’s events.
