Numerous critics have been eager to draw attention to the LIV tour’s alleged lack of competitive competition. One fan sarcastically said, “Literally playing against 10 guys and you are counting top 10.” According to their point of view, Rahm’s impressive performances are exaggerated since the field is smaller than it is on the PGA Tour.

Another fan echoed this sentiment and claimed, “he plays against about 10 guys who are even close to his level. The other 40 are has-beens, never-weres, and never will be.” He added, “he’s probably the second-best player in the world, but he’s not going to stay there playing on LIV.” It’s commonly believed among LIV’s critics that the players on the circuit are lesser talents and fading stars who can’t compete with top players like Rahm.
Finally, a fan noted that Rahm’s poor performance in the Masters served as evidence against his inflated status, writing, “Big stat 0 wins and T45 +9 at the Masters.” His lackluster display in a major golf tournament was utilized as proof to counter his LIV scores.

Rahm has turned into a lightning rod, infuriating PGA Tour supporters despite his incredible stats. Many people’s perceptions of his enormous talents have changed after his jump to LIV. Fair or not, Rahm will probably need to start accumulating LIV victories in order to appease his detractors and win back the respect of the supporters. His outstanding performance hasn’t won him much affection from the people who earlier applauded his achievement for the time being.
