Rahm says European tour is 'extorting' LIV players by making them play more events to rejoin tour‎

Jon Rahm tore into the European tour Tuesday over its offer for him and other LIV Golf players to rejoin, claiming the tour was “extorting players” by forcing them to play additional tournaments. Rahm, competing this week in LIV Golf Hong Kong, spoke publicly for the first time since the European tour announced a deal that would require LIV players to pay previous fines for not getting releases and to compete in additional events designated by the tour. Eight players from LIV, including Tyrrell Hatton, accepted the deal.
