Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka are among the 14 LIV Golf players that are in the field at this week's DP World Tour event. Following the conclusion of the Saudi-based league's 2024 season, a renowned analyst has given the players a brutally honest grading on their performance.
My Golf Spy's Sean Fairholm labeled all 54 of LIV Golf's players a "let down," with the exception of 2024 US Open winner Bryson DeChambeau. Having made three Major Championship appearances this year, Jon Rahm was given a C-minus grade.
Rahm sits in contention with a shared seventh place at the ongoing Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. However, Fairholm justified his grade by stating that Scottie Scheffler had set the bar incredibly high for the rest of the field. Despite finishing as the top individual in LIV Golf this season, Rahm underperformed at the Majors. He finished tied for 45th place at the Augusta Masters and missed the cut at the PGA Championship while recording a top-ten finish at the Open Championship.
Brooks Koepka received a rating of D plus. Fairholm labeled the former PGA Tour player's performance this year as "stinky." After battling serious injuries in 2022, he claims that 2024 is the Smash GC captain's "worst major season." Having made the cut in all Major championships, Koepka did not record a finish better than tied for 26th place.
This week's DP World Tour leader Tyrrell Hatton was rated a C plus. The Legion XIII player has not recorded a top five Major finish since 2016. However, fans anticipate his win at The Old Course in St. Andrews tomorrow after a stellar third round score of eleven under par 61.
