Rahm and Palmer Pairing

Just kind of confused as to how they ended up as a team? Are they friends or something? Or did they just throw him in there because Spieth didn't play with Palmer?

They were in final grouping last year and joked about it.

Palmer texted him and asked super early in the year before someone else asked Rahm, and Rahm obliged. Probably would be hard just to reject another pro in that situation.
Same thing he did with Spieth.

A year ago, Rahm and Palmer found themselves in the same final-round group at TPC Louisiana – only with different partners, Rahm with Wesley Bryan and Palmer with Jordan Spieth. The two joked then that they’d make a pretty stout team.
“Our games complement each other so much, the way we drive the ball, our iron play,” Palmer said, “and there's nothing better than missing greens knowing his short game is behind me.”
Then Bryan tore his left labrum in his shoulder, and Spieth decided not to return to Zurich this year. Both players needed partners, so Palmer, with his fingers crossed, reached out to Rahm during the Desert Classic in January.

Apparently, Speith paired with Palmer because he lost a bet.
"The Jordan Spieth-Ryan Palmer partnership at the Zurich Classic is obvious for many reasons – fellow Texans, close friends – but there’s an even better backstory behind their union.
A large group that included Spieth, Palmer, Palmer’s caddie James Edmondson, Beau Hossler and Harrison Frazar played a wolf game last November at Trinity Forest in Dallas.
Before they teed off, Edmondson made a wager with Spieth: If I beat you today, you have to partner with Ryan at the Zurich.
Edmondson, a former college player and four-time club champion at Colonial, shot 71 and clipped Spieth."
