ORLANDO — Rory McIlroy believes the DP World Tour has offered LIV players a “generous deal” to return to the circuit and understands that while it complicates Jon Rahm’s ability to play in the 2027 Ryder Cup, he called it “bigger than any one person.”
On the day that Ryder Cup Europe named Luke Donald to the captaincy for a chance to win a third straight Cup when the matches are played next year at Adare Manor in Ireland, McIlroy was asked about the recent deal that eight LIV Golf members took that will allow them to avoid suspensions and fines—but was rejected by the two-time major champion Rahm.
