Spanish golfer Jon Rahm has confirmed that he will be eligible for next year's Ryder Cup in Ireland after agreeing a deal to continue playing on the DP World Tour. The agreement ensures Rahm's participation in European events, including the Ryder Cup, which is set to take place at Adare Manor in Co Limerick, Ireland, in September 2025.
Rahm, who has been a key figure in the European team in recent years, has been in talks with the tour regarding his eligibility after initially stating he would not continue playing on the circuit. However, it appears that a deal has been struck, allowing him to maintain his status as a European Tour member.
The 29-year-old has had a successful career to date, winning the US Open in 2021 and claiming several other top-level titles. His participation in the Ryder Cup will be a significant boost for the European team, who will be looking to reclaim the trophy from the United States in 2025.
Rahm's deal is a major coup for the DP World Tour, which has been working to retain its top players in the face of increasing competition from other tours. The tour has invested heavily in recent years to improve its competitiveness and attract top talent, and Rahm's continued participation is a major endorsement of its efforts.
