Liv Golf suspends Jon Rahm, which has domino effect on other players see details below
Brandel Chamblee didn’t hold back his critique following Jon Rahm’s dramatic final-round failure at the Olympics, branding it “one of the biggest chokes of the year” and on par with Rory McIlroy’s meltdown at the US Open.
With just nine holes remaining, Rahm was leading and had expanded his advantage to four shots after a remarkable front-nine 31. However, his game unravelled in the closing stretch, managing only an even-par 70, which allowed world No.1 Scottie Scheffler to stage a stunning comeback and steal the gold.
Scheffler, who trailed by six shots, embarked on a birdie blitz, nailing four in the last five holes to chart a flawless final round 62. The American edged out Team GB’s Tommy Fleetwood by one shot, while Hideki Matsuyama from Japan claimed the third spot, finishing two shots adrift.
