Jon Rahm Breaks Silence on LIV Golf Fines & Ryder Cup Future ⛳ | Sergio Garcia Left Out
Jon Rahm has spoken out about the ongoing LIV Golf fines and DP World Tour appeal that has surprisingly kept him eligible for the Ryder Cup 2025 at Bethpage Black. The Spaniard admits he has “completely forgotten” about the appeal process, which has yet to receive a date or deadline.
Rahm and teammate Tyrrell Hatton are only competing at this week’s BMW PGA Championship thanks to their appeals, while other LIV players like Sergio Garcia, Lee Westwood, and Ian Poulter were previously banned after losing their legal battle in 2023.
Despite refusing to pay his fines, Rahm insists his Ryder Cup future isn’t under threat. However, he expressed disappointment that his close friend Sergio Garcia, Europe’s all-time Ryder Cup points scorer, wasn’t selected by captain Luke Donald.
🔥 Rahm says Garcia played incredible golf earlier this year but failed to maintain that form, missing his chance at a comeback. Still, Rahm vows he’ll “always root for him.”
👉 Watch the full breakdown of Rahm’s comments, what the DP World Tour’s delay means, and how this impacts Team Europe ahead of the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black!

Do you also want me to create a tabloid-style clickbait version of the title/description (with more dramatic language like “Rahm FORGETS LIV Fines 😱”)? That could help boost CTR.
John Ram insists he has all but forgotten about the ongoing appeal regarding fines handed down for competing in Elivy golf events. A situation that somewhat ironically has kept him eligible for the RDER Cup. Rahm is one of 11 members of team Europe teeing it up at the BMW PGA Championship this week with only Seep Straa absent after the recent birth of his child. Both Rahm and teammate Tierrell Haden are only in the field because of their appeals against monetary sanctions imposed by the DP World Tour for playing LIIV events without clearance. The case echoes the legal battles from two years ago when the DP World Tour successfully enforced its punishments against legends such as Sergio Garcia, Lee Westwood, and Ian Poulter. But unlike that drawn out process, no date has yet been set for Rahm and Hatton’s appeals. A delay that has allowed Captain Luke Donald to select two of his strongest options for this month’s clash at Beth Page Black. You know as much as I do, Rome admitted when pressed on the situation. I have no idea. I have no clue. To be fair, I completely forgot about it, which is a good thing. I hope I forget about it until it happens. The Spaniard, who previously stated he has no plans to pay the heavy fines in question, remains confident that his Rder Cup future won’t be jeopardized long term. However, he did share disappointment that his close friend Sergio Garcia, Europe’s all-time Ryder Cup points leader, failed to convince Donald for a return. He’s a good friend of mine. He’s Spanish and the moments we shared in Whistling Straits 2021 and Paris 2018 mean a lot. Rum said, “Personally, I’ll always want him around. He played incredible golf early in the year in places maybe people weren’t watching, but from April on, he didn’t keep that level. I don’t think he helped himself. I understand that while we’re not earning points or rankings, we need to make a really strong case to be picked. Had he kept that level, he might have been on the team, but he didn’t play as well as he could have. Subjectively, I’m always going to root for him.
