Jon Rahm not wasting time on what ifs of PGA Tour-LIV union - ESPN

Jon Rahm still doesn't know much about the proposed partnership between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf, but he knows this much — he's not dwelling on it.

Rahm, 28, is at the Travelers for the first time since 2020 and is playing only because of the designated status. Players are allowed to skip just one designated tournament, so Rahm is playing the week after the U.S. Open — something he normally wouldn't do.
