Ryder Cup 2025: Jon Rahm appeals against DP World Tour fines

Jon Rahm has improved his chance of playing in next year’s Ryder Cup by appealing against the fines imposed on him by the DP World Tour.

The Spaniard either had to pay his fines or appeal against them to be allowed to play in the three DP World Tour events he needs to retain his membership of the *********-based tour and therefore be eligible for the Ryder Cup.

Rahm, 29, said on Wednesday he did “not intend to pay the fines”.

But with Thursday’s 12 noon deadline approaching for entries to the Spanish Open, which begins on 26 September, he appealed against the fines.

A DP World Tour spokesman told BBC Sport: “Jon Rahm has a pending appeal against sanctions imposed on him and in accordance with the DP World Tour’s regulations, he is eligible to participate in the Open de Espana.”

By contesting the fines, Rahm has followed his Ryder Cup and LIV team-mate Tyrrell Hatton, who was able to play in the British Masters earlier in September.

They were among several players fined for playing Saudi Arabian-funded LIV Golf tournaments that conflicted with DP World Tour events without requesting permission from the *********-based circuit.

Players must play four DP World Tour events a year to retain their membership, with Rahm’s participation in the Paris Olympics counting as one.

He has also entered next month’s Dunhill Links Championship in Scotland and the Andalucia Masters at Sotogrande in Spain.

The DP World Tour season ends in November.

The Ryder Cup between Europe and the ******* States will be played at Bethpage ****** in New York next September.
