“Not a Rumor, It Is Happening”: Jon Rahm’s LIV Signing Sees New Light as Paige Spiranac Drops Truth Bombs
Jon Rahm’s LIV Golf-switch rumors have gathered such pace that even Paige Spiranac, the golf influencer, who is no longer directly associated with the professional sport, thinks that it’s a done deal. Unconfirmed reports suggest that Rahm is about to ditch the PGA Tour to join the Saudi-backed breakaway league for a staggering $600 million and Spiranac has added fuel to the fire.
Spiranac is a self-proclaimed fan of Rahm. Earlier this year, after the Spaniard had won the Masters, Spiranac had offered her congratulations via a post on her X handle, predicting many more Major wins for the World No. 3. She had also called Rahm the best player on the PGA Tour. So, like everyone else, she is also keenly following the developments.
Spiranac, who couldn’t quite make it as a professional golfer, writes and comments on golf, and has her golf channel on YouTube. She was asked about Rahm’s rumored switch to LIV on Apple’s The Girls are Back podcast. The 30-year-old spoke with a certain degree of finality.
“So reportedly, that is around $600 million. This has been rumored for a while now. And even though no one has really come out and said anything… One way or another,” Spiranac said.
