Jason Day and Adrian Meronk are reportedly set to join the LIV Golf

According to the latest reports, Jason Day and Adrian Meronk might also join LIV Golf along with Jon Rahm, who has been at the center of speculation for the last few weeks.

The Telegraph reported that Rahm is all set to switch to LIV Golf after signing a record £450 million deal, and an announcement could be made on Wednesday, December 6. The report further stated that he isn't the only one making the bold move, as Day and Meronk are also expected to defect to the Saudi-backed circuit in the coming days.

An ex-Ryder Cup player was quoted as saying via Telegraph Sport:

"I think this will happen, and that Jason Day and Adrian Meronk will also join (the LIV Golf)."

Day is a former World No. 1 and has won 13 titles on the PGA Tour, including the 2015 PGA Championship. Earlier this year, he ended his five-year winning drought at the AT&T Byron Nelson, beating Austin Eckroat and Si-woo Kim by one stroke.

The 36-year-old Australian golfer made 24 starts this season and finished eight times inside the top ten. Besides winning the AT&T Byron Nelson, he also finished joint runner-up at the Open Championship. He was last spotted at the Hero World Challenge, where he finished 11th at 8-under.

Meronk is a four-time winner on the DP World Tour and had an impressive year, winning three titles and finishing fourth in the Race to Dubai season-long standings. His last victory came at the Andalucía Masters, where he beat Matty Schmid by one stroke. He was last spotted at the Australian Open, where he finished T8 at 9-under.

Despite such a strong season, the 30-year-old Polish golfer was snubbed from the European squad for the Ryder Cup. Later, he openly shared his disappointment, stating that he was shocked, sad, and angry after being ignored.
