Jon Rahm Gives No 2027 Plan as LIV Funding Crisis Puts 9-Figure Deal at Risk

Summary
Jon Rahm said he has "no updates" on LIV Golf's future and would not commit to a 2027 playing plan or a PGA Tour return ahead of this week's Irish Open.
LIV's uncertainty deepened after Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund ended funding with the 2026 season, leaving players unclear where they will compete next year.
Rahm said he is still willing to fulfill his LIV 1.0 contract, but reports of a possible bankruptcy filing have cast doubt over whether his nine-figure deal will be fully paid.
Scott O'Neil has said a new investor is in place for a proposed "LIV 2.0," yet neither that structure nor any pathway back to the PGA Tour for defectors has been defined.
