LIV Golf rumors: Top 10 player in the world could be next to jump

By Anthony On Jun 30, 2022

The LIV Golf tour continues to poach players off the PGA Tour, but could the next one be a top-10 player?

This broadway battle between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf has been the center of attention for months. More golfers continue to make the switch, but the most recent rumors suggest it could be a top-10 player in the world, and that could be a defining moment for both sides.

As the second LIV Golf Tour event approaches this weekend, a new name has surfaced as the next player to jump off the PGA Tour ship.

The rumor mill points to Patrick Cantlay, the reigning FedEx Cup champion, as the next guy to join LIV Golf. He is the No.7 golfer in the World Golf Rankings, making Cantlay the highest-ranked player to leave the PGA Tour.

Cantlay’s move could cause a domino effect with some of the other Tour players. However, it could also cause the PGA Tour to give more so those staying will be happier.

LIV Golf rumors: Patrick Cantlay the next to leave the PGA Tour?

The STP has been contacted by several well informed and trusted sources, who have said that a current OWGR Top-10 player will make the jump to LIV in the coming weeks. STP knows who it is, but is unable to name this player at this current time.

Secret Tour Pro, while it is an anonymous account, has been spot on about other rumors in the past, but their vagueness caused us to do a little more digging.

????My bets are still on Cantlay just by the way he has talked about it being intriguing in past months, but we will see. The rumor is that a top 10 player is jumping https://t.co/c3IZh2wy3y

NUCLR suggested Cantlay because of how, among the Tour players, he has been someone who didn’t immediately shut it down but didn’t say he wasn’t interested either.

Cantlay’s answer to the question of whether he has an offer on the table or not wasn’t convincing. His quote is something that got the media off his back for a while, but it screams he is leaving.

His comment was much better than Brooks Keopka, who sold out like he judged others for doing.

It’s not like Cantlay is a prominent face of the PGA Tour, but he has been very successful in the last couple of years. If this decision happens, it should make the PGA Tour open their eyes a little more, but it still isn’t the domino that will make the rest of them jump ship.

Cantlay isn’t a big enough name to cause that much damage, so best of luck to him if he does leave, but it will give another guy a real chance on the PGA Tour, which would be even more beneficial.
