Jon Rahm was originally set to be a part of Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy found TGL League, which will host its inaugural season in January 2024. However, his name was recently removed from the list of 24 particpants, raising some eyebrows.
Rahm commented on the matter saying that he would not be able to offer the time required to be a part of the league. This led several people to start questioning whether the golfer could be in talks with the LIV Golf series.
However, PGA Tour vet Hunter Mahan was quick to shut down any rumors, saying via Twitter:
"He's not going to LIV. There’s nothing complicated or nuanced to @JonRahmpga backing out of TGL. He’s not going to LIV. Lot of travel for an indoor event, when he wants to win majors."

Mahan echoed the sentiments of many who also reasoned with the fact that Jon Rahm just has a busy schedule and does not have time to be a part of another league. The distance between his home town, Arizona, and TGL's base, Florida, might just prove to be too much for the World No. 3, especially with a young child at home.
