Jon Rahm held a pre-tournament conference for the Waste Management Phoenix Open’s first ever “elevated”. Jon Rahm was asked by journalists if he still had the Memorial Tournament trophy that he won his first time as number one in the world.

Rahm immediately answered the question.
“I do. Rahm stated that his name is Kepa. He’s only two years old. Kelley, sorry, but yes. I can’t tell the whole story, but she can. It was probably that night. Sorry.”
Christopher Powers from Golf Digest did the math and it worked out. Kepa Rahm was nine months old when he won the Memorial.
Despite winning four of his seven previous international starts, Rahmbo still ranks third in the Official World Golf Rankings. He trails Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy.
He will be trying to reach his ultimate goal of becoming number one at TPC Scottsdale this week. It will be an exciting event that includes a Superbowl Sunday finish.
