Rahm was pressed for comment on the shock rumour during a rain delay in the first round of LIV Golf Greenbrier on Friday afternoon.
Per Pro Golf Critic on X / Twitter, Rahm laughed off Golf Digest’s claim and said the publication loves to “just make sh*t up”.
Rahm is understood to have said:
Yeah that’s why I can’t stop smiling out here.
“They just make sh*t up.
“Couldn’t be further from the truth.”
Pro Golf Critic tweeted: “Complete garbage from Jaime Diaz and Golf Digest.”
He added: “So Jaime and Golf Digest talk to ‘anonymous sources’. Well, we just talked to the ACTUAL source (who actually has integrity), so I like my sources better. Lmao.”
Rahm opened with a solid 6-under 64 in the first round of LIV Golf Greenbrier.
That’s just one shot back of the leaders.
Rahm is bidding to win back-to-back individual events on the LIV Golf League.
The Spaniard clinched his first LIV Golf title in England at JCB Golf & Country Club at the end of last month.
