Phil Mickelson opens up on Jon Rahm silence after telling Masters champ not to join LIV Golf

Although Phil Mickelson has already informed Jon Rahm that he has no desire to play for LIV Golf, he will undoubtedly be ecstatic to see the Spaniard advance to the breakaway league.

Despite having earlier informed the Masters winner that he had “no reason” to join the Saudi-backed series, Phil Mickelson has welcomed Jon Rahm to LIV Golf.

Following the announcement earlier this week of a record-breaking contract worth an estimated £450 million, Rahm became the most well-known player to join the LIV Golf organization. By doing this, he continues the legacy of several other legends, like as Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka, and Mickelson.

Following his Thursday relocation to Saudi Arabia, Rahm has received several congratulations from his new LIV teammates; good pal Mickelson is the most recent to do so after liking X.

The six-time major champion tweeted, “You want good things to happen to good people in life.” “Happy for Jon Rahm.” Many were surprised to learn that Rahm was leaving the PGA Tour, even though in recent weeks there have been many rumors connecting the Spaniard to the renegade league.

The Green Jacket champion has already denied that he would ever sign with the LIV setup. Lately, he disclosed on the Golf Sin Etiquetas podcast that he would ‘laugh’ if his name was associated with the Saudi transfer. He also disclosed that Mickelson had instructed him to stay on the PGA Tour.
