LOS ANGELES - Jon Rahm became the first Spaniard since Seve Ballesteros in 1989 to hold golf's world No. 1 ranking, fending off a late challenge Sunday to win the US PGA Memorial tournament.
Rahm led by eight shots through nine holes but dropped four strokes in a five-hole span on the back nine with a bogey at the 10th, double-bogey at 11 and a bogey at 14 to see Ryan Palmer pull within three. Jack Nicklaus, the 18-time major winner who hosts the event at Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio, called the shot"spectacular" as he congratulated Rahm with a fist bump at the 18th green.
