"It's what p****s me off”: Jon Rahm fumes after first round struggles (bunkered)

The world No.2 was quick to let the rest of us know he was not a happy man, after an opening 74 left him seven shots off the early Masters pace.

At the reachable par-five 13th, Rahm's tee shot found Rae's Creek, and he would go on to make another bogey. He would go on to make a bogey after missing a short par attempt. It’s what it is, it’s bad luck and it’s what p****s me off.

I think it would be a big difference more Sunday than a Thursday. But to be honest, it's not where my head's at right now." However, his streak has now been snapped at 15, just one shy of the record set by Tiger Woods from 1997 to 2001. It's bad luck, and that's what pisses me off.

Jon Rahm: Remarkable unearthed footage of 'greatest hole-in-one ... (Daily Express)

JON RAHM once went viral for skimming a ball across the pond of the Augusta National to get a stunning hole-in-one while preparing for the Masters.

I’d like to see a better one.” Rahm has in the past admitted to idolising Woods growing up, while when the Spaniard beat the golfing legend in singles during the 2018 Ryder Cup, he said it was one of the best moments of his life. That year, Rahm said it would “mean a lot” to win a Masters due to Spain’s history of success in the tournament. It has become tradition for players to attempt to skim the ball across the pond in front of the par-three 16th during the Augusta practice rounds. Instead of placing the ball on the tee like any normal golfer, the Spaniard placed his ball a few steps forward towards the side of the lake.

The Masters 2022: second round – live! (The Guardian)

Rolling updates: Will Tiger Woods stay in step with the leaders as players battle to make the cut at Augusta? Find out with Scott Murray.

He’ll have a chance of a chip-in for eagle; more realistically an up and down for a third birdie in a row. In goes the birdie putt, and he signs for his second 71 of the week. Thomas meanwhile becomes the latest player to bother the flagstick at 14 with his approach, and he converts his birdie putt to return to +1. And up on 15, Tiger hits an uncharacteristically clumpish chip well past the flag. He’s let a couple of big chances go in the last couple of holes. He remains at +1, while his partner Niemann gets away with a sliced approach, avoiding the drink and ending up with a par that keeps him at -3. Not quite, but he’ll tap in for a third birdie in a row and will move into red figures for the first time in this tournament. He’ll have a putt for birdie and a round of 66. Having made his way up the leader board to -1 with those birdies at 13, 14 and 16, he finishes bogey-bogey for a 70 that’s slightly disappointing in context. It’s a 74, and he ends the day at -1. If he makes the putt, it’ll be his fifth birdie in the last seven holes, and he’ll have come back in 31 strokes for a 66. One heck of a back nine from Scottie Scheffler, and the world number one is in the box seat going into the weekend. Scheffler sends a big slice into the pines down the right of 18.
