LIV Golf spell Jon Rahms name WRONG in embarrassing error

LIV Golf bungled their announcement that Jon Rahm would be joining the Saudi rebel circuit by misspelling his name in a word search posted to social media to confirm his move from the PGA Tour.

A post on Thursday evening by LIV's social media account showed a word search for fans to find the name of three newcomers to the tour.

The fourth and fifth rows had the name 'John Rahm', but the Spaniard spelled his name 'Jon'.

It's a tough start for Rahm, the Masters champion, whose move will undoubtedly be a crippling blow to the PGA Tour.

The Spaniard had long distanced himself from joining LIV, but his words in times gone by appear to have increased his price tag.

He joins LIV in a deal that could reach an astonishing total of $570 million.

''I laugh when people tell me about LIV Golf. I've never liked the format. My heart is with the PGA Tour,” Rahm said just three months ago.

But on Thursday he said on X: 'I am proud to join LIV Golf and be part of something new that brings growth to the sport.

“I have no doubt that this is a great opportunity for me and my family and I am very excited about the future.”
