Jon Rahm and Euro Tour end dispute, he's now eligible for the Ryder Cup

Jon Rahm will be eligible for the 2027 Ryder Cup at Ireland’s Adare Manor after reaching an agreement with the DP World Tour to continue playing its events outside of his LIV Golf commitments.

On Tuesday, a DP World Tour spokesperson confirmed to Golf Digest that Rahm had been granted a conditional release—similar to an agreement reached in March between the circuit and eight members who play on LIV Golf.

Rahm, a two-time major winner, had refused to agree to conditions set out by the DP World Tour that allowed Tyrrell Hatton, Laurie Canter, Thomas Detry, Tom McKibbin, Adrian Meronk, Victor Perez, David Puig and Elvis Smylie to continue playing LIV events in 2026 that conflicted with DP World Tour tournaments without accruing fines.

The conditional releases for those eight players came under three stipulations: that they pay all outstanding fines, participate in a set number of DP World Tour events (along with associated media activity and promotion) and withdraw all pending appeals.

“The DP World Tour and Jon Rahm have come to an agreement on conditional releases to play in conflicting tournaments on LIV Golf during the remainder of its 2026 season,” a DP World Tour spokesperson said via a statement provided to Golf Digest. “This involves payment of all outstanding fines accrued from 2024 to date, along with participation in agreed DP World Tour tournaments (outside the Majors) in the remainder of the 2026 season.”

Rahm’s conditions were similar, although there were conditions specific to the 10-time DP World Tour winner. The 31-year-old has settled all fines including participation in three conflicting tournaments in 2026.

Golf Digest has previously reported Rahm’s penalties were less than $3 million.

It was believed some of the players who accepted the conditional releases were required to play in six DP World Tour events this year. Rahm’s minimum number has been pro-rated from six to five because he had been sanctioned for three conflicting tournaments.

Rahm had been particularly annoyed with the minimum six events in addition to 13 LIV events and four majors. DP World Tour members need to play four events to maintain membership, which is also a requirement for eligibility on the European Ryder Cup team.
