On Moving Day at the 151st Open, Jon Rahm carded a brilliant 63, a score that saw him jump from 2-over-par to 6-under. Rahm’s stunning round, which featured eight birdies, was not only his lowest major round but also the lowest-ever round at Royal Liverpool in major history.
The Spaniard’s heroics have continued in the final round as well, as he vies to chase down Brian Harman for the title. One of his most iconic moments during the ongoing round came when the golfer coolly put his hat on backward and proceeded to make a birdie on the par-5 5th hole.
