Rahm Calls for Majors to Go Global
14 Jul
Summary
- Jon Rahm suggests majors could be held outside the US.
- He believes Australia could host a successful major.
- Rahm desires more global recognition for golf majors.
Jon Rahm, a two-time major champion, has voiced his opinion that golf's major championships should consider expanding their venues beyond the United States. Speaking ahead of The Open Championship, Rahm suggested that international locations could host these prestigious events, citing Australia as a potential successful venue. He believes this move would better reflect golf's status as a truly global sport.
Rahm's call for change comes as he competes in The Open Championship, seeking his third major title. Despite strong performances on the LIV Golf tour, his major results since moving have been mixed. His suggestion for a more international major schedule could potentially involve moving the PGA Championship abroad or even creating a fifth major event in regions like Asia or Europe.
