Here are the winners and losers of the quarter finals of the WGC–Dell Match Play Championships. It's all shaping up nicely for the semi–finals......
World Number Two Jon Rahm will return to the BMW PGA Championship for the first time since 2019, and the Spanish superstar will be hoping to go one better than his runner-up finish three years ago when he tees it up at the fourth Rolex Series event of the season, from 8-11 September.
Jon Rahm finished with back-to-back birdies to win the U.S. Open and take his first major title. In complete contrast to two weeks ago, when Rahm was in tears on being told he had tested positive for COVID at the Memorial, the Spaniard was punching the air as his birdie putt fell.
Jon Rahm was sitting pretty in the clubhouse looking set to take the BMW Championship after a sparkling final round 64 when Dustin Johnson decided to spoil the party. The World number who had started the day in the joint lead and three clear of Rahm holed an unlikely forty five foot putt at the last to force a playoff.
Surely the least contentious and well-deserved award for 2019 was Jon Rahm being voted the Seve Ballesteros Award as the 2019 European Tour Players' Player of the Year, after a spectacular campaign which included two Rolex Series titles, another victory on home soil and culminated in him being crowned the Race to Dubai Champion.
Patrick Cantlay won the Memorial Tournament for the second time in three years after beating fellow American Collin Morikawa at the first hole of a playoff. On Saturday Cantlay had finished six shots behind runaway leader Jon Rahm only to learn that Rahm had tested positive for COVID-19 and had to withdraw from the event.
Wil Besseling made it 36 bogey-free holes to lead the way into the weekend at the 2021 Acciona Open de España presented by Madrid but World Number One Jon Rahm was just one shot back in the Spanish capital. The Dutchman followed an opening 64 with a 65 at Club de Campo Villa de Madrid to get to 13 under and he will face the biggest day of his career in the final group on day three.
Most of us who bet on golf like to apply a little extra knowledge to our wagering. Or, at the very least, we believe we do. A little bit of analysis might have told us, for example, that Jon Rahm was a good thing last month.
A rejuvenated Danny Willett heads the leaderboard alongside Jon Rahm of Spain on eleven-under-par after day two of the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth. Two shots back sit Sweden’s Henrik Stenson, world number four Justin Rose and Christiaan Bezuidenhout of South Africa.
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."
Patrick Cantlay of America snatched a one shot victory at the Zozo Championship with final round seven-under 65 which included nine birdies. Jon Rahm of Spain and overnight leader Justin Thomas finished tied in second on twenty-two under par.
