There are many factors that contribute to greatness in the sport of golf. Success is mostly dependent on a golfer’s skill, technique, physical fitness, and mental toughness. However, the most crucial of them all is having a strong will to succeed. Having a winning mentality tops all the attributes. As he won the 2023 Masters trophy, Jon Rahm etched his mark in the history of golf.
The Spaniard is certainly the center of attention after winning his first-ever green jacket. However, Rahm’s desire to win more seems unaffected by the Masters victory, based on recent events.

The 87th Masters this year had everything – excitement, rivalry, competition, tiredness, and Augusta National’s poor weather conditions added to that. The 28-year-old clinched the title by edging past Brooks Koepka in a very hard-fought battle.
However, Rahm’s desire to win more stands strong after receiving the green jacket last week. In a recent video from PGA Tour on Twitter, the two-time majors champion was spotted arriving to Harbour Town Golf Links, the site of the RBC Heritage, which will take place from April 12 to April 17.

This clearly demonstrates that the $3.24 million triumph was insufficient for the 28-year-old Spaniard. Just three days after winning the Masters, Rahm returned to the grind, demonstrating his terrific attitude and passion for the game. Furthermore, the entire golf community is impressed by this episode, which has drawn worldwide attention.
Fans react to Jon Rahm’s return to the grind
While Masters was filled with struggle and competition, Rahm has left the days of joy behind and is now here to contend for yet another championship. The golf fans were amazed by this winner’s mentality, and they went on to express their opinions. Some of the fan responses include:

Furthermore, after a challenging week at the Masters, many golfers will come and compete for the RBC Heritage title. While the competition serves as the sixth official tournament of the PGA Tour season, the winner takes home $3.6 million. Meanwhile, Rahm will take his Masters winning attitude to clinch yet another major. While being ranked number one in the world right now, Rahm surely will be favorite to win the tournament. However, this event surely is the one to look forward for.
