Jon Rahm: 'It Does Bug Me' LIV Golfers Are Participating in BMW PGA Championship

The BMW PGA Championship will feature 18 players who have competed for the LIV Golf tour, an inclusion that bothers Spanish golfer Jon Rahm.

Rahm explained his thoughts to reporters Tuesday:

"It does bug me that somebody who has played 20 DP World events this year cannot be given the opportunity to play a flagship event because some people that earned it, to an extent, are being given an opportunity when they couldn't care any less about the event. They don't know. They don't care. They don't know the history of this event. They are only here because they are trying to get world-ranking points and trying to finish in the top 50 [to get into the majors], and that's clear as day.
