Jon Rahm's involvement with **LIV Golf** will conclude after three seasons. The Spanish golfer has earned numerous titles and substantial earnings during his time on the tour, but his performance in the Majors—golf's most prestigious tournaments—has been notably different from the three years before he left the **PGA Tour**. The official announcement of Rahm's departure from **LIV Golf** allows for a closer look at three contrasting seasons in his career. When he left the **PGA Tour** in December 2023, he was still the reigning Masters champion and one of the top players in the world. On the **LIV Golf** tour, however, Rahm was dominant. The results were clear: in three seasons, the native of Barrika won four tournaments and finished first in the individual rankings for three consecutive years. From this perspective, it is hard to label his time on **LIV Golf** as a failure.
The evaluation becomes less favorable, however, when examining the four Majors—golf's four most important tournaments—that continue to be the ultimate test for players. During his three years with **LIV Golf**, Rahm played 11 Majors and did not achieve any victories. He missed two cuts and finished in the top 10 four times. This contrasts sharply with the three seasons before he left the **PGA Tour**. Between 2021 and 2023, Rahm played all 12 possible Majors. He finished in the top 10 seven times, missed no cuts, and won two Majors: the 2021 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines and the 2023 Masters at Augusta. His top 10 rate dropped from 58% (7 out of 12) to 36% (4 out of 11).
This change is even more striking because these three seasons coincided with the years of Rahm's 29th, 30th, and 31st birthdays. At that age, he had the potential to significantly improve his Grand Slam record. While it is not certain that his move to **LIV Golf** caused this decline in performance, the numbers clearly show a sharp contrast between the two periods of his career. Rahm's time on **LIV Golf** has been marked by strong results in regular tournaments but a noticeable drop in performance during the Majors, which are the pinnacle of professional golf.
