“You know, had a second boy this year, a lot of changes at home — it also helps”. Jon Rahm then talked about receiving a video of his children from his wife Kelley. He said, “I got a lot of videos from my kids back home laughing and doing things”.

Rahm ended by saying, “Kelley sent me a video of our youngest, Eneko, when he was clapping, and that’s what I was thinking on the last few holes, hopefully try to make him clap a little bit more”. And the video was more than enough for the Spaniard to take back home the DP World Tour Championship trophy.
