In the opening round of the Wells Fargo, Jon Rahm was playing the par-5 15th, and on his 3rd shot (with a 60) he takes about a 3/4 back swing but comes down at full speed… from just 26 feet away.
The former Arizona State superstar hit it nearly perfect, and got a nice little kick for his gutsy effort. He’d go on to make the 2 footer for birdie.
