Why play?
The question had been posed a few times to Jon Rahm this weekend. It was OK to at least wonder. He had won the Masters last week. He was exhausted. Likely no one would have blinked had he chosen to withdraw from this week’s RBC Heritage.
Except maybe him.
“It’s my job, right?” Rahm said Friday. “… People pay their hard-earned money to watch me perform. It’s my job to perform. They don’t care if I slept good or bad, I feel good or bad. It doesn’t matter. As a competitor, I’m not ducking anything, in that sense. I’m going to go out and try to shoot low.
“… My intention is to try my hardest, and that was it.”
That being said …
Three point six mill to the winner ain’t bad either.
