As the PGA Tour kicks off another year at the picturesque Kapalua, there are two things catching everyone's attention. First, the breathtaking view from the first tee, where players get to witness an 80-yard fairway that seemingly drops right into the vast expanse of the sparkling Pacific Ocean. And second, the elusive sightings of Jon Rahm, the defending champion at The Sentry.
However, Rahm's presence at the tournament might be somewhat peculiar this time around. Given his recent decision to join the Saudi-funded LIV Golf, he has been the subject of much debate and speculation. With a compensation package that potentially surpasses the entire prize fund for the FedEx Cup season (a whopping $402.4 million, excluding the majors), Rahm's move has raised quite a few eyebrows.
