JUST IN: Jon Rahm publicly calls out Tiger Woods for not been supportive, Following Tiger Woods’ failure to rec..

Rahm disclosed that he received two very different answers from two of the top stars in golf—who also happen to be two of LIV’s harshest critics—during Sunday morning’s ESPN SportsCenter broadcasts.

“Rory has publicly supported my decision and he was privately as well,” Rahm said in a pre-recorded interview with ESPN’s Marty Smith.

Rahm’s remarks make reference to remarks made by McIlroy following his startling decision in December. McIlroy demanded a revision to the Ryder Cup eligibility criteria shortly after Rahm’s declaration in order to guarantee Rahm’s spot on the squad in 2025.

Then, in January, he softened some of his most pointed criticism of players who left to join the Saudi-backed breakaway league.

On Gary Neville’s The Overlap, he said, “I was maybe a little judgmental of the guys who went to LIV Golf at the start.” “Now that I realize that not everyone is in my position or in Tiger Woods’ position, I think it was a bit of a mistake on my part.”

Before Rahm’s departure, it seemed unthinkable that he would declare LIV players should be let to return to the PGA Tour by the end of the month.

But Tiger Woods, the man McIlroy said was in a similar situation to his own when evaluating LIV, hasn’t offered Rahm the same kind of support.

“Tiger? When Smith inquired as to if Rahm had heard from McIlroy and Woods, Rahm said, “No, not really.” “Well, Tiger, I texted him and the folks that tried to get in touch with me about the signing process, and I just told him, ‘Hey, you know, this is a personal decision.’”

Rahm didn’t go into any detail about his remarks when he contacted Woods.

Woods hasn’t been in public too often since Rahm left. When questioned about Rahm twice at the PNC Championship, he provided little information regarding their connection.

Over the years, there has been a lot of chatter about particular players leaving, and it was all conjecture until it really occurred since there have been rumors about people leaving and not leaving, as well as whether or not they actually materialized, Woods stated at the PNC. “So, up until it actually happened, we thought it was just conjecture.”

Before withdrawing from the Genesis Invitational due to the virus last week, he was not questioned about Rahm at all.

But Woods isn’t the only well-known PGA Tour player Rahm hasn’t talked to since switching to LIV Golf. In addition, he disclosed to Smith that, despite his wish to keep competing in PGA and DP World Tour tournaments, he has not spoken with Jay Monahan, the commissioner of the PGA Tour.
