Days After Showering F-Bombs at Hoylake, Jon Rahm Makes an Uncanny Confession About His ‘Frustration’ This Week

Former World No. 1 Jon Rahm, is also contending at the Open Championship with the hopes of adding a third major title to his name. While the PGA Tour loyalist is known for his impressive wins, he gained the attention of media and fans for a notorious habit at Hoylake.

It was just two days ago when his little moment of frustration at the Open went public. And now hours after that Rahm has made a rather contrary confession about the same.

Jon Rahm confesses about staying more patient

Rahm’s great form on the green has made him popular. And the Spanish golfer is a terrific player without a doubt. His multiple victories in tournaments and his ranking are a testament to that. However, there is another thing besides his game that has made Rahm popular among fans, and that is his frequent outbursts on and off the course.

The Spanish golfer has earned a reputation for lashing out at unforeseen moments. Keeping that in mind, the media had a little fun with him after the third round of the Open. At the after-press conference, Rahm was asked how he managed to keep control of his temper at Liverpool. “Why do you think you were able to stay more patient out there today?”

To which Rahm gave a shocking reply. He said, “I think I’m a lot more patient than most people believe I am, to be honest. It’s just I show my frustration a lot more than other people, but I’m extremely positive on the golf course.” This is quite a surprising reply considering Rahm’s previous history of outbursts, and his most recent one being at the PGA Championship this year. But his statement was more ironic because just one day ago, Jon was captured using curse words at the Open Championship.

Rahm’s frustration at the Open Championship caught on a hot mic

It was during the second round on Friday and Rahm was trying to cover the distance of just a couple of feet between the ball and the hole which he missed. Rahm ended us using some curse words which was caught on a hot mic. His response was also captured by camera crews. After the video of the same surfaced fans went berserk and called it the “most brilliant word in spoken language history”. However, his fans are habituated to this habit of Rahm. But his denial of the same at the conference was somewhat shocking.

Performance wise, Rahm is doing good right now at the Open. On the first day, he didn’t do very well and ended with a score of 3 over 74. But on Friday he improved it and finished with 1-under 70. After the third round, he raised himself much higher on the leaderboard. Do you think he will be able to grab his second major win this year? Let us know in the comments below.
