Player Overview
Jon Rahm is one of the most talented golfers of his generation, combining raw power with exceptional touch around the greens. The Spaniard won the 2021 U.S. Open and the 2023 Masters before departing for LIV Golf in late 2023. While his PGA Tour appearances have become limited, Rahm remains a force in major championships where he continues to compete. His game features elite driving and strong approach play, making him dangerous at longer courses. Rahm's fiery temperament can be both an asset and liability — he feeds off emotion and momentum, which creates high variance in his tournament outcomes. For DFS purposes, Rahm is primarily relevant in major championship weeks when he tees it up on the PGA Tour.
