World number two Jon Rahm picked up his first since his triumph at the U.S. Open last June with a win at the Mexico Open. Rahm went wire-to-wire but it was hardly plain sailing in the final round for the Spaniard. Rahm had salvage par on the par five 18th to finish on seventeen-under for a one shot victory. "Today was a battle," Rahm said. "But I got it done."
Laurie Canter will take a one-shot lead into the weekend at the 2022 Catalunya Championship after carding a 67 on a happy hunting ground in Girona. The Englishman was four shots off the lead at the start of play but fired the lowest round of day two to get to seven under par and lead the way from countryman James Morrison and South African Oliver Bekker.
Sweden’s Maja Stark produced a round of 69 (-3) to lead by one stroke after 36 holes at the Women’s NSW Open. The 22-year-old was the co-leader overnight having shot 68 (-4) in her opening round, but her second day at Coolangatta & Tweed Heads Golf Club was far from straightforward.
Three-time major winner Jordan Spieth put the disappointment at Augusta behind him to beat Patrick Cantlay in a playoff to win the RBC Heritage title at Harbour Town Golf Links.
Jennifer Kupcho claimed her first LPGA title at the opening major of 2022, The Chevron Championship, finishing two shots clear of fellow American Jessica Korda, who finished in solo second place.

Pablo Larrazabal displayed a superb back nine fightback to retain the lead at the halfway stage of the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters at Doha Golf Club. The Spaniard leads by one on nine under par after posting a one-under-par round of 71 on day two, but the 38-year-old’s second round was truly a tale of two nines.
England’s Georgia Hall produced another excellent day as she fired a round of 68 to sit on 10-under-par at the top of the Aramco Saudi Ladies International presented by Public Investment Fund leaderboard. The 2018 Women’s Open winner, who has shared the lead on the first two days at Royal Greens, rolled in four birdies and one bogey on her front nine.
India’s Anirban Lahiri who is ranked 322 in the world is the surprise leader of The Players Championship at Sawgrass. Five birdies in his first nine of his curtailed third saw Lahiri top the leaderboard a shot clear of Americans Harold Varner III and Tom Hoge. Lahiri has won twice on the DP World Tour and has had multiple wins on the Asian Tour but a win at Sawgrass would be a different level.
