OAKMONT, Pa. — Two-time major champion Jon Rahm comes into the U.S. Open off another top 10 at LIV Golf, which is nothing new. The Spaniard has never come in lower in the 20 events he has finished since joining the Saudi-backed league at the start of last year.

Three years ago nearly to the day, DeChambeau — who theretofore had publicly declared his allegiance to the PGA Tour — announced he was leaving for LIV. For the Saudi-backed tour, it was a coup, landing the game's most enigmatic figure. For DeChambeau, it was a massive financial haul, worth reportedly north of $125 million.
