Betrayed by the putter, Jon Rahm could not dispatch himself at ease on Kiawah Island until the last day. He signed 68 strokes that alleviated the discontent that had created him on Friday and Saturday, frustration for which he apologized at the end of the round. “Maybe it wasn’t the best attitude,” he said before saying goodbye.
But at last Rahm felt comfortable on the greens and that prompted his return to one of the best of a day in which the wind changed and caused a different scenario to the three previous days. “I have hit the ball better and only missed two putts. I played very comfortable day, “said the Barrika golfer.
His return with six birdies and only two bogeys, in pairs 3, drove him to high positions, but the Spanish did not hide that his plans are very different. “I may be close to the top 10, but coming from behind. And what I’m looking forward to is being up there on the weekends because I know what I’m capable of.”
Visit to Callaway
To do this, his plans are to go to the Callaway laboratory in Carlsbad to undergo technological studies with the putter, a pit stop, let’s say. Next week or at the end of the Memorial, to adjust everything for the US Open. “I’ll go to Callaway to work on putting. As my aita (father) says, it’s not the bow, it’s the Indian. I know it’s the Indian. But let’s see if I can find something that I like more, nothing special. Something change my confidence “.
Meanwhile, Jon was looking forward to seeing Phil Mickelson triumph. “It would be incredible. At his age he has the enthusiasm of a child. He has the same enthusiasm as me and has been here for 25 years. He is one of the people that if I do not win, he would be just as happy because he is a very good friend of mine. That record of being the Most veteran golfer to win a big one would be amazing, “he told the organization.
