What's Next for Tiger, LIV Golf's Second Season Is Here and Jon Rahm's Remarkable Run
Jon Rahm won Sunday's PGA Tour event, and that's the third time we've typed that in the last seven weeks. Remember when he was asking what more he had to do to become No. 1 in the world again? Winning yet another star-studded "designated event" was the answer.
