There is no one on the #PGATour that has better started to the 2022-2023 season than the Spainard, Jon Rahm. The guy is firing on all cylinders and is tough to beat if he is in contention on Sunday afternoon.
He is also making a shit ton of money with these wins, and were only halfway through February. Rahm earned his third PGA Tour victory of the year at the Genesis Invitational. In just five starts this year, Rahm has made $9,402,750 on the Tour. That doesn't include the $462,000 he made at the CJ Cup in October, which is part of this wraparound season. And to put this amount into perspective....Scottie Scheffler set the Tour's single-season earnings record last year, with $14,046,190 (not including the Tour Championship payout).
Hey Jon Rahm....you like being rich? $3.6 million for first this weekend....not a big deal!
Doesn't hurt when your constantly breaking 70 on the course. In 7 events so far this season, Rahm has shot 70 or over 7 times....in 28 rounds. If Rahm can continue this type of play he will only get richer, as some of the most profitable PGA Tour events are on horizon. He currently ranks ninth all-time in total official money earned when compared to official money leaders from seasons.
Shout Max Homa for battling all week, and his post round interview explaining how meaningful it is to play in front of his friends and family. I was honored for someone to say I looked like him last week, even though they were probably lying.
If there is anyone who can put a stop to this mans historic run of golf.....is one man.
