The perfect display of Jon Rahm the last day of this Open de España will force the Basque to lie if he has to answer the question that some entity asks with a password to gain access and they ask you to confirm that “I’m not a robot”. Sunday at Rahm Country Club then. A golf machine and a hammer with a putt (26 made) in his hands. A 62 in the final lap was not enough to win the Wentworth PGA a few weeks ago, but it was, for example, to win the Irish Open in 2019.
Rahm only plans to play one more tournament on the DP World Tour (European Tour) and that is the final, the World Cup in Dubai in mid-November. In a press conference he said, in the face of future goals or challenges as an athlete, that he wanted to join “the group of Spaniards who won the Augusta Masters” (Ballesteros, Olazábal and García) and announced that his intention was which returns in 2023 at the Spain Open. He also assured that one of his dreams is that a PGA Tour tournament can be held in our country, something he is working on, and well, for 2024. . We are a country that has good weather all year round, eats well, takes good care of the players and I didn’t understand why they couldn’t invest in a tournament here. I’m trying,” Jon said.
On the microphones of Movistar Golf, he commented that he hopes that the victory in Madrid will help him have options to win the Race to Dubai (formerly Order of Merit). The truth is Jon doesn’t have any mathematical options unless he changes his calendar. With victory in Madrid and if he wins in Dubai, Barrika’s man will add 2,460 points which, added to the 1,243 he has accumulated so far, will give him a total of 3,703, not enough to chase leader Rory McIlroy.
That being the case, if Jon still wants a chance to win the Race to Dubai, he needs to add another tournament. One possibility is the Nedbank Golf Challenge in Sun City, South Africa (a week before Dubai), a country where the now world number 5 has not yet competed (he gained one place in the ranking). That tournament distributes 7,000 points and the winner gets 1,165. It remains to be seen if this incentive to win the Race to Dubai is enough for Jon to make any changes to the calendar. It’s difficult. Jon should be in Scottsdale (Arizona) with Kelley, Kepa and Eneko. On Sunday, he declared that “this is the first time I have won and my wife and children are not with me to celebrate it”
