The adaptability of Jon Rahm it is a fact. It does not matter that it has been stopped for a long time or, as this time, that it releases game material. Once you enter the golf course, the Barrika player he blends in with the situation in an outstanding way and does not take long to unfold his game. The vizcaino returned to action at the Sentry Tournament of Champions, an appointment reserved exclusively for the golfers who touched the glory last season, and their lack of activity was not noted. Again in the fight for the top spots and, above all, with a great game from tee to green. Only his erratic putt play, coincidentally the only material that did not change, kept him from getting closer to victory. Finally, Rahm was seventh five strokes behind winner Harris English. The American had to go to the tiebreaker to win the title, but there he was able to defeat Joaquín Niemann.
Rahm had a Very solid performance in the Kapalua field. There were hardly any saw peaks in his game and he grew with the passage of the tournament. His worst card was delivered on the first day, three strokes below par on the field, and from there everything went up. The last day he was even able to take one more blow and at times it seemed that he was going to be able to enter the fight for the title. But the great performance of English and, especially of Niemann, who chained nine birdies in a row, made Rahm’s good performance not have a better prize.
This seventh place of the Biscayan gains even more value due to the circumstances in which he achieved it. He premiere of the material always creates certain doubts in golfers and the adaptation period is usually necessary. Rahm showed no signs of being uncomfortable and he played as if he had known the sticks for months. However, this good performance is not the result of chance. “What people may not know is that I have worked a lot with the new equipment for quite some time, specifically after Augusta week. I spent many hours at the Callaway factory to come out with the appropriate equipment. After that, in house was very confident with the new team, “declared the barrikoztarra. Now Rahm will rest a week to face three consecutive tournaments in the next three.
