Callaway Golf has announced that it is partnering with Jon Rahm and his LIV team, Legion XIII, marking the first time a major equipment brand has aligned itself with a LIV Golf team.
Rahm signed an endorsement deal with Callaway in 2021 and went on to win the 2021 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines using Callaway clubs and balls. He would go on to win the 2023 Masters using Callaway gear as well before joining LIV Golf.
The other members of the Legion XIII team include Caleb Surrat, Tom McKibbin and Tyrrell Hatton. Surrat and McKibbin have used Callaway equipment in the past, but Hatton uses Ping clubs.
The announcement from Callaway did not include details about what the partnership will include or any financial details.
In a press release, the president and CEO of TopGolf Callaway Golf Brands, Chip Brewer, said, “We are happy to partner with a world-class athlete in Jon Rahm, and his Legion XIII team. We are committed to being an equipment leader wherever top players are competing, Now the time is right to cement our relationship with Jon and his team — utilizing his exceptional talent and stature within the game to help engage and excite fans around the globe.”
Currently, Rahm is playing a Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond driver, TCB irons, an Odyssey Ai-One putter and a Callaway Chrome Tour X ball.
