Rahm: “I handled myself well, I didn’t make any big mistakes”

Jon Rahm Want to get something positive from his gray debut, like the sun, on Royal Thronewhich hosts the 152nd edition of British Operan. He made a considered analysis of his return and the mistakes he made. The Basque, however, still lacks the sensations, for example, that led him to dominate the circuit in the first four months of 2023. It has rained since then, like this Thursday when the native of Barrika came out to play. And he endured the downpour as best he could.

“Let’s see, I managed how I played, in the first two holes I didn’t put the ball on the fairway and I had birdie putts in both of them for example, I can say that I managed well, I didn’t make any big mistakes except on the 13th hole because of what happened, I can’t say it was a good day overall, I wasn’t as comfortable as I would have liked, but with the wind and the wind. rain it was very easy to get mixed up…” Rahm reflected on the mixed zone.

After what I saw, “I would have liked to finish at par, I did enough to finish 71 and in the end the key was on three holes, the 4th, 13th and 16th; on the 4th, how the ball in a bunker, on 13 I couldn’t get that far to the right and on 16 after putting it in the fairway with an iron then gave myself a birdie option … But this is golf, how hard is it was, I got a look forward and see if tomorrow we play better,” he added the double major win: US Open 2021 and Masters 2023.

“On the 16th I wasn’t confident about the shot I should have hit, I was hesitant…There were two swings that I didn’t expect, especially the one on the 13th hole. Strategically I wouldn’t change anything about -round, hitting the ball a little, yes, the aspect of my game that will be complicated, it is a struggle, on days like this, a return of safety in quotes. final reflection.
