World number two Jon Rahm ended his trophy drought in style with a wire-to-wire victory in the the inaugural Mexico Open.
Rahm had not tasted victory since claiming his maiden major title in last year’s US Open, a barren run which saw him replaced as world number one by Scottie Scheffler, whose Masters triumph was his fourth win in the space of 57 days. “It was a pretty stressful weekend all the way to the end. I didn’t think having a par-five where a fade off the tee was required I would be stressing this much, but I got it done at the end.
Northern Ireland’s Graeme McDowell finished tied 33th after a three-under-par 68 on the final day left him seven-under-par for the tournament. “There’s so many amazing players out here – the competition is really, really difficult – so I just didn’t know if my mind and my body were going to put me back in the position that I was going to be able to do it again.
