How does a PGA pro hit a 3w in the rough off the tee even if it's a 27' W landing spot?

Nerves on the tee 1.

JT just missed a birdie put on 9 that would have him at -3. He is not a great 10-12 foot putter. He just doesn't read the breaks like the best putters.

JT double boogie at 10 now back to even and pretty much done.

I would like to see Jon Rahm win just because he got shafted at the Memorial

The golf gods at work this past weekend, eh?

SAN DIEGO -- Whether it was destiny or karma was of no relevance to Jon Rahm. He won the U.S. Open on Sunday at Torrey Pines, the perfect time and the perfect place to become a major champion.

Jon Rahm closes with two birdies to win U.S. Open for first major

Jon Rahm became the first Spaniard to win the U.S. Open and did it on his first Father's Day.

@TerryP quite a few things had to go wrong (douche meltdown and Oost faux-pas among others) and several things had to go right, namely those last 2 birdies by Rahm. I cannot swear there are golf gods, but the argument is there.

Raham wins 2.3 million

Oosthuizen wins 1.350 so that birdie on 18 for 2nd alone was worth apx 500k

JT tied for 19th (125K). He was at -2 coming into 9 (par 5) and hit is 2nd shot over the green then failed to birdie. Then he shit the bed on10 with a double and he was done. These last months since the Player's haven't been good for him at all.

DeChambeau said all you got to do on that course to win was hit it far and get it as close as you can and hope for a good lie if its in the rough. That didn't work out so well for him yesterday. Maybe he was distracted.
