This dude has it all.

Love watching him play.

Hope he makes a run in the OPEN.

I love his short swing.

There is no doubt the guy has talent. It will be fun to watch and see what he can accomplish.

I disagree. Seemed like he got mentally beat at Erin Hills and never could recover.

His short swing is hard to mess up though. That's a strength of his, very simple and consistent.

I personally think it's hard to cheer for the guy to be honest. Something about him is just irks me.

Keep in mind he is still really young.

What I watched of him at the Irish Open was incredible.

Not many can torch the field like that.

This dude wrote the Arizona State coach with a handwritten letter asking to get on the team.

The coach flew him out to Arizona and he made it on.

He went from Spain to freshman at ASU playing golf with a letter

Oh, I know. I was just commenting on that he's the complete package, which I don't think he is. Yet.

He will get more experience when he gets older, I also hope he grows out of his temper as well. Those fits at the US Open were pretty entertaining though.

The commenters during the final round talked about that. Rahm seems to understand that he needs to grow up and watch his behavior. He looked the part on Sunday. I like that he went for the chip in on 18. The kid is a competitor

Per a Calloway rep, Rahm whipped DJ's arse for trying to hit on his g/f. That's the reason he dropped out of The Masters. Apparently the house DJ rented was a single story so the stairs incident was bullshite.

Wasn't DJ playing with someone he had those types of issues with before? I remember there were jokes but I can't remember the details.

That's it. The joke was that Jimmy pushed him down the stairs. This is the first I'm hearing about Rahm though.

If this is true, the PGA Tour is better at covering up stuff than the government.

This can't be true... What a story if it is.

Must've been body blows. Not many arse kickings can be covered up with a light sweater
