Jon Rahm will be returning to play in the Scottish Open for the ⁠first time since 2022, an additional ⁠tournament requirement that will clear the ⁠way for his participation in the Ryder Cup in 2027.

Rahm had been in a dispute with the DP World Tour, relating to his association with LIV Golf.

Rahm, 31, is one of LIV’s biggest stars and best paid golfers, having finished in the top 10 in ‌31 of his last 32 LIV events and earning an estimated US$350 million since making his departure from the PGA for LIV in 2023.

LIV’s recent troubles with funding have left several of their best players interested in defecting back to the PGA or to DP World Tour, though Rahm, thus far, has remained firm in his commitment to LIV.

The Spaniard is required to compete in four ⁠tournaments to maintain his status with the DP World Tour and be able to compete in premier events such as the Ryder Cup.

But the DP World Tour earlier this year made an offer to LIV golfers to clear the way for them to compete on the ‌circuit without incurring fines and requiring releases: compete in an extra two events.
