AUSTIN, Texas — Yes, huge purses have helped to draw stacked fields to the World Golf Championships Match Play event, ever since its inception in 1999 in La Costa, California. But with the news that the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play has been stripped from the 2024 schedule, Jon Rahm is one player who’s been adamant that the PGA Tour needs to find a way to bring the format back into the fold sooner than later.
In fact, when asked about it in advance of Wednesday’s first round, the world No. 2 said he’d be on board for any such event in the future, even if it was re-introduced as a non-elevated event.
