2026 Panini Par Three LIV Golf: Rahm–DeChambeau Autographs and Downtown

Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau share a dual autograph, while Anthony Kim’s signature celebrates a comeback victory. Those are two particularly good reasons to look at 2026 Panini Par Three LIV Golf. The new release puts its cards into a compact, encased format, but the subjects have room to tell different stories: a pairing of headliners, a tournament-winning moment, a team identity or a piece of match-worn memorabilia. Panini’s Par Three previews

Expected release and the three-card hobby format

Dave & Adam’s is taking presales at $159.95 per hobby box, with an expected October 14, 2026 release. Those are dealer details. Panini’s format provides three encased cards: an autograph, a base card or parallel, and a memorabilia card or insert, on average. The third position is where the opening can shift from a material-focused card to one of the illustrated inserts. Dealer box listing, Manufacturer configuration

The base-card position matters more than its name might suggest. Panini gives the regular player photograph a formal border, while the Team Logos treatment changes the background into a repeated club motif. That leaves a distinct team-collecting angle inside a product otherwise led by signatures and tournament moments. A Dustin Johnson collector following 4Aces, for example, gets more visible team identity from that treatment than from a small club name below the picture.

Rahm and DeChambeau share a balanced dual autograph

The Plus One Autographs Holo Gold preview gives Rahm and DeChambeau opposite corners of a horizontal card. Rahm’s photograph sits at upper right with his signature across from it; DeChambeau’s photograph occupies lower left, paired with a signature at lower right. Both golfers have enough space for the club and follow-through to remain visible. The gold-and-black frame binds the two halves together without making either player look like an addition squeezed beneath the other.

Their separate team labels are part of the attraction: Rahm appears with Legion XIII, DeChambeau with Crushers GC. This is a pairing across teams, giving collectors a shared card of two prominent opponents. It also makes a thoughtful companion to Kim’s LIV Moments card. At Adelaide in February 2026, Kim beat a field that included both men, turning three of Par Three’s previewed signatures into a connected tournament story. LIV Golf’s account of Kim’s victory

Anthony Kim’s Adelaide card has the clearest story

Kim’s LIV Moments Signatures places a celebration photograph inside a restrained horizontal gold frame. His raised knee and open-mouthed reaction carry the image, with the crowd visible behind him. The signature sits across the lighter lower-right portion of the picture rather than in a completely separate box. The front identifies Adelaide, keeping the reason for the celebration attached to the photograph.

The actual result was a remarkable sporting return: Kim won LIV Golf Adelaide in February 2026, his first professional victory in nearly 16 years. That history makes this particular autograph more compelling than a generic golfer portrait. Someone who followed his return can collect a signature tied to the moment that made the comeback tangible. The image’s emotion is doing useful work here; an ordinary swing photograph would not communicate the same achievement. LIV Golf’s comeback coverage

Sergio Garcia’s Tournament Champions Red takes a different approach to the winning moment. The trophy photograph dominates a vertical card, with 2024 LIV Golf Andalucia Champion printed prominently below. Garcia won that event at Valderrama by beating Anirban Lahiri on the second playoff hole; Fireballs also won the team competition. The red uniform and Fireballs identification therefore belong to a card celebrating a particularly strong weekend for both player and team. LIV Golf’s Andalucia recap

Clubhouse Collection makes room for the material

Clubhouse Collection Signatures features match-worn memorabilia, with Bubba Watson, DeChambeau and Phil Mickelson among the names Panini announces. Watson’s Platinum preview places the golfer at left and a wide material window at upper right. Bright pink lettering in that window becomes the strongest color on the front, while his blue signature sits below it. The horizontal format gives the fabric enough width to remain a meaningful visual element beside the autograph. Manufacturer memorabilia details

Watson’s pale trousers and lavender shirt make the pink material especially noticeable without competing with it. Fine blue-and-black lines organize the three components—player, material and signature—rather than putting a heavy frame around each one. For a memorabilia-focused collector, that relationship is the card’s strongest feature: the patch gets substantial space, but Watson remains clearly identifiable and the autograph retains its own uninterrupted panel.

Team Logos gives the base program its own identity

Panini announces a 50-card base set. Dustin Johnson’s Team Logos preview places a repeated 4Aces pattern behind his swing, with purple and silver framing around the photograph. His dark shirt keeps the golfer separate from the busy background. The result makes the club an active part of the design rather than a small identification line; a 4Aces collector can recognize the connection before reading Johnson’s name. Base previews

Joaquin Niemann’s Holo Gold preview is more traditional. His pale shirt and white cap sit against a blurred green course, enclosed by a broad gold frame with green accents. It is a useful contrast with Johnson: Niemann’s version emphasizes the golfer’s pose, while Team Logos emphasizes the player’s place within a LIV team. Both retain a substantial photograph rather than shrinking the golfer to accommodate the border.

Downtown adds illustrated scenes and a separate champions chase

Mickelson’s Downtown surrounds his follow-through with curling water, palm trees, warm-colored buildings and a pink sea lion. The illustration fills the card around a clearly defined golfer, giving it a much more playful character than the formal base portraits. DeChambeau’s Gold Downtown uses a different scene: tall buildings, a red-brick landmark and a winding ribbon of water behind his swing. The previewed golfers receive individual settings, which makes the design itself worth comparing across the checklist.

Rahm’s Downtown Tournament Champions turns horizontal, with the golfer raising a trophy above a green foreground. Street signs carrying Downtown and Rahm sit beside a large city skyline. Panini identifies Downtown and Downtown Tournament Champions as ultra-rare and advertises a Gold parallel numbered to ten. For a Rahm collection, the champions card offers a celebratory pose and broader illustrated scene alongside the conventional swing photography on his dual autograph. Downtown program
