For Jon Rahm, family comes ahead of everything. Including Golf. Rahm married his ASU girlfriend, Kelley Cahill, in December 2020, a year after he proposed to her with a wedding ring. Cahill, a track and field athlete herself at Arizona State University, appeared on the sidelines with the couple’s children at last year’s Masters. 

The Spaniard now has one more reason to smile, as his massive announcement on social media reveals. A new member will join the growing Spanish-American family soon. But first, here is everything you need to know about the four-member family.

But Kepa didn’t have to wait too long to find a companion for his indoor games and outdoor adventures. Before his second summer on Earth, the one-year-old Kepa had a brother.

And now, they are expecting the third member of the family. The reigning Masters champion took to social media to announce that Kelley Cahill is expecting her third.

For the Spaniard, family comes ahead of his profession. In an interview with Golf Digest in 2019, Jon Rahm said that if he were put in a gunpoint situation to choose between golf and family, he would choose the latter every time. 

Rahm left a settled PGA Tour career for his family

For the 29-year-old, the duty of being a good father and a caring husband is much more important than his on-course job. In the same Golf Digest interview, given a year before his marriage, Jon Rahm said, “I’m much more interested in raising a family and being a good husband and father than I am in golf.” In fact, spending time with his family was also a deciding factor in switching to LIV Golf.

In a tell-all interview explaining his reasons for joining the PIF-funded side, Rahm said, “I rarely get to spend one one-on-one time with each one and be quality time because usually I’m playing and have to share those hours that I have with them.” Aside from the light schedule of 14 events, the Spaniard revealed that the hefty contract sum will guarantee a safe future for his family. Now, he will have one more member to spend time with and care for.
