Jon Rahm Wins His First Masters 2023
With an unflappable performance at Augusta National, Jon Rahm won the 2023 Masters on Sunday, earning his first green jacket and second major of his career. At the beginning of Sunday’s final round, Rahm was two strokes behind Brooks Koepka, but he surged as Koepka stumbled to win his second major championship.
The Spaniard put on a consistency masterclass to win by four shots over Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson of the LIV Golf Series.
Rahm finished the tournament 12 under par and ultimately won by four shots.
Rahm remarked, “I’m looking at the numbers, and I still think I have a few more holes to win.” I truly have nothing else to say. That was intended for Seve. He was up there helping, and help he did.”
Rahm’s victory saw him overtake reigning Masters champion Scottie Scheffler as the number one player in the world, moving him up the rankings after two days of bad weather forced repeated play interruptions at the 87th edition of the legendary major.
With his victory at Torrey Pines in 2021, Rahm became the fourth Spaniard to wear the green jacket and the first golfer from Europe to win both The Masters and the US Open. This happened on the birthday of the late Seve Ballesteros, who won the tournament in 1980 and 1983. He had never placed better than fourth at Augusta National before Sunday night. He made his seventh appearance at the Masters this year, but he came prepared with such a wealth of knowledge about the course that he said it would be difficult to put to full use.
Here at Augusta National, he added, “I feel like it’s incredibly difficult to implement everything you learn from each round.”
“Clearly, the more you play, the more at ease you become with a slight lag,” he continued. It’s true that there is some learning involved and similar things, but ultimately, this is a golf course, so you have to come out and play well, isn’t that right? It’s plain and simple. There’s no trick to it. The best player wins, and that’s what you’ve got to do.”
