Jon Rahm says goodbye to “match play” of the World Cup

Let’s remember the August Masters (from April 6 to 9). There is no choice for Jon Rahm either, who said goodbye to the match play of the World Championship tonight after the disastrous last day of the group stage, in which he was convincingly defeated by Billy Horschel (22nd favorite of the tournament). The Spaniard was bad, far from his level and barely fought against an opponent who was already winning by four points in seven holes before the end. Rahm was a shadow of himself. With no birdies on the day, he also gave up two separate double bogeys on 2 and 11. It’s hard to win with those poor records.

Other seeds also dropped: Will Zalatoris (No. 7), Viktor Hovland (No. 8), Collin Morikawa (No. 9), Matt Fitzpatrick (No. 11), Jordan Spieth (No. 12), Tyrrell Hatton (No. 14) and Sungjae Im (16.). In contention for the title will be Scottie Scheffler (1st), Rory McIlroy (3rd), Patrick Cantley (4th), Max Homa (5th), Xander Schauffele (6th), Sam Burns (13th) and Cameron Young (15th). .

This Saturday (from 3:00 p.m. to 12:00 p.m., Movistar Golf) is the fourth day with the start of the final rounds (of the round of 16).

Punta Cana Championship

Things didn’t go well for Galician Santi Tarría either, who crashed out of the second PGA Tour event of the week, Puntacana, after missing the cut (+4).
