Jon Rahm is under a lot of pressure heading into this year’s PGA Championship. The Spaniard’s winless streak continues after his fourth-place finish at the LIV Mexico.

The 30-year-old used to be one of golf’s brightest stars, having previously won both the Masters and the US Open.

Rahm is one of many LIV players struggling to find form, and concerns continue to grow as LIV’s best prepare to arrive at Quail Hollow for the 2025 PGA Championship.

However, unless Rahm can regain his waning golfing ability, it seems highly unlikely he will be able to compete in the second major of the season.

Jon Rahm attributes too many mistakes to lack of form

Speaking ahead of LIV Golf Korea, Rahm revealed he needs to make some major changes if he wants to return to the top of world golf.

“I’m just not doing everything I need to do right. Sometimes you need a little luck on your side, and it’s not like I haven’t had it,” Rahm told reporters.

“I just haven’t done myself any favors on the golf course, I’ll put it that way,” he added.

Rahm has consistently finished on top this year, but so far hasn’t been able to turn his constant contention into a victory.

“While I like being in the top 10 and I like being a good player week after week, winning is obviously what matters most,” he said.

“I would gladly give up some of those top ten spots in exchange for more wins.

Rahm remains a favorite among LIV golf fans, even though he hasn’t won this season.

However, the Spaniard has yet to finish outside the top 10 since making the jump to LIV. His consistent performance will make him a strong favorite heading into this year’s PGA Championship in May.

Rahm’s tongue-in-cheek response to a reporter at the LIV golf press conference

Speaking during the post-round press conference at Mexico City’s LIV, he had a sharp response to criticism surrounding the lack of smiles between Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton during their final round.

“I’d say you might not see it on the broadcast, but honestly, both Tyrrell and I smile a lot more than we think we do. Honestly, if we make a couple of mistakes on a couple of bad holes, there’s no reason to be happy,” Rahm said.

But I vividly remember three or four moments when we laughed. Maybe it was because of something funny we did, some bad luck on the golf course, whatever, but there are definitely stretches of golf where you get a little more frustrated. You don’t have to do much wrong here for something to go wrong. It’s a tricky golf course.

Despite his apparent seriousness, Rahm couldn’t unseat Joaquín Niemann. Niemann shot a final round of 65 to secure a three-shot lead over Lucas Herbert and Bryson DeChambeau, tied for second.

LIV will then head to South Korea, with LIV Korea taking place from May 2nd to 4th.
