It’s unusual for a golfer to post five different scores in 18 holes of his tour, making his streak even more curious. Jon Rahm in his second round of Mexico Openin Vallarta, where the Basque is defending his title from last year.
The world number 1, recent champion of Augustan Masterssigned five different results on five consecutive holes: eagle, birdie, par, double bogey and bogey between holes 6 and 10.
Rahm finished the first day in a tie for 14th place thanks to a card of 67 strokes, four behind the first leader of the tournament, the American Austin Smotherman. On the second day, this Friday, Jon animated his second round with an eagle on the 6th hole when he made a putt from 13 meters, a -2 that was even brighter with a subsequent birdie on the 7th .

However, after reaching par on 8, a double bogey on 9 and another bogey on 10 erased the -3 with one stroke of the pen and brought the Spanish player back to par on the 2nd day. Rahm will have to keep fighting to enter the weekend with options for another victory.
