Jon Rahm Living His Best Life, Striping Irons Off Brick, and Celebrating U.S. Open Victory

Just 3 weeks ago, Jon Rahm was in a really bad place after the PGA TOUR informed him (**completely screwed up**) after his 3rd round, which helped catapult him to a 6-shot lead, that he tested positive for COVID and would be forced to withdraw from the Memorial Tournament.

But now, Rahm is the World No. 1 golfer and the 2021 U.S. Open Championship. And like a true competitor, he’s soaking in every moment and celebrating the momentous victory like it could be his last:

After raising the U.S. Open Championship Trophy at Torrey, Rahm headed right over to his home away from home, Silverleaf Country Club (Scottsdale, AZ), where Rahm famously shot a course-record 59 after making the switch to Callaway Golf equipment.

As you can see from the video, celebrations went later into the night, included the unofficially ceremonial drinks from the trophy and concluded with Rahm absolutely striping an iron off a brick patio to an absolutely perfect soundtrack!

While no one is entitled to anything, it’s hard to argue that Rahm isn’t the most deserving person of being the 2021 U.S. Open Champion after all the adversity he faced recently. And if that wasn’t enough, being able to pure an iron off brick certainly demonstrates that Rahm has the skill to back up the win!
