Jon Rahm LIV Golf contract, explained: How much money does two-time major winner make from LIV deal

Before joining LIV Golf, Jon Rahm was one of the more outspoken individuals against the Saudi-backed league. The keyword there — before. 

Rahm was one of the more surprising signings to the league, as the Spaniard elected to move on from the PGA Tour and join the proverbial dark side, signing with LIV in 2023. The two-time major winner went from one of the most popular names on the PGA Tour to someone who only shows up at the major events on the calendar.

The exact details of Rahm's contract with LIV have not been revealed. However, it has been reported that it's a multi-year contract worth more than $300 million, according to ESPN. 

Initially, Rahm's deal was reported to be worth more than $500 million to sign with the Saudi-backed golf league. That reported number has since been reduced; however, it still marks one of the biggest contracts that LIV Golf has handed out since its inception. 

"I’m not allowed to speak on that right now," Rahm said at the time of the agreement. "There are certain things that are not gonna be public. This decision was for many reasons, what I thought was best for me. Don’t get me wrong — it’s a great deal. I had a really great offer in front of me and that’s why I took it. They put me in a position where I had to think about it and I did."
