Jon Rahm wins fifth tournament in past nine
Jon Rahm is playing at such a high level he felt he didn’t need the Official World Golf Ranking to tell him he was the No. 1 player in golf.
That carried him to a 2-under 69 and a two-shot victory over Homa , with Patrick Cantlay another shot behind. Adam Svensson of Surrey, B.C., finished tied for ninth at nine-under. He shot 2-under on Sunday. He still had the largest gallery to the end, thousands of fans packed on the hill over the 18th green to watch him close out with a par in that familiar red shirt under a black vest.
This wasn’t as easy as it looked at the end, when all he had to do was tap in for par and scoop up his two young sons.Homa, who won at Riviera two years ago, began the final round three shots back. He quickly closed to within one shot, only for the Spaniard to come within inches of holing out from the fairway at No. 8 for a tap-in birdie, while Homa made bogey from behind the green to slip three shot behind again.
He steadied himself with a 6-iron for a dirt lie left of the 13th fairway that set up a long two-putt par, and then the par 3s won it for him.
