Jon Rahm Is Making Some Incredible Leaps Upward.

Rahm found himself with an ill-fitting golf glove in Thursday’s first round in Las Vegas.

And playing a great 18th hole, having an eagle chance, making the birdie on 1 and the par putt on 2, that is easily a two-shot swing if I don’t hit one of those shots correctly.”

Rahm’s round left him in sight of the top of the leaderboard.

Rahm also hasn’t teed it up since the U.S. Open, where he finished T-23. He took one of those three weeks completely off of golf.

In Arizona, where Rahm is based, short-game practice has been a bit challenging because of most courses have over-seeded.
