Jon Rahm has arguably had the best year of his professional career in 2023. He won four tournaments and was also part of the winning Ryder Cup team.
Having started the year with a resounding victory at the Sentry Tournament of Champions, Rahm impressed fans every time he teed it up in 2023. He won back-to-back PGA Tour events in January. After winning $2.7 million in prize money from the Tournament of Champions, he clinched the trophy at The American Express.
Rahm finished third at the WM Phoenix Open after finishing tied for seventh at the Farmers Insurance Open. Two months after winning the Genesis Invitational Open, he claimed his second career major at the Masters. Rahm had four top-10 finishes in the PGA Tour and only missed the cut at the Travelers Championship.
Spotrac reports that Jon Rahm made $21 million in 2023, with $16 million coming from official competitions and $112 from unofficial ones.
Notably, Rahm surprised the golf world earlier this month with his abrupt departure to the Saudi-backed LIV Golf, following a successful stint in the PGA Tour in 2023.
According to The Telegraph, the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund made the Spanish golfer an offer of more than $500 million in contracts to join LIV. With the agreement, Rahm surpassed Al-Nassr Star captain Cristiano Ronaldo to become the highest-paid athlete in the world.
