In the previous days, we informed you about the statements of golfers regarding Tom's potential arrival at LIV Golf, and the golfer who also reacted to these rumors is Jon Rahm.
The popular Spaniard followed the same path, although the reactions were furious.
Nevertheless, he had clear visions of what he should do in his career.
During the press conference, the 30-year-old answered the reporter's questions about whether LIV is a good environment for a young golfer.
I can't tell you what a good and bad environment is for Tom, Rahm said, as reported by Irish Independent.
I think that's an answer for him.
I think it is a good environment as any, really. Its just as competitive as pretty much any other tour."
Jon Rahm: LIV is an environment in which you can grow very rapidly
Rahm does not want to deeply analyze any decision, having the attitude that everyone has the right to choose and decide what they want. However, the former PGA Tour believes that LIV has the necessary qualities and great golfers, who can push a golfer to develop in the right direction. The Spaniard was somewhat mysterious in his statements, reluctant to fully share his opinion.
