After an extraordinary turn of events, Spanish golfer Jon Rahm has clinched the season’s inaugural major championship, the Masters Tournament. The 28-year-old’s victory means heartbreak for Brooks Koepka, who led for large parts of the event and looked unassailable at one stage. But a poor display at the final round on Sunday has undone the golfer’s quest for his maiden Green Jacket. Support poured in for Koepka on his misfortune. Including his wife, Jena Sims, who also shared a message for the Rahm family.
