Winners Circle: Jon Rahm
Welcome to the results recap by Golfscale, your go-to source for all things professional golf. This week, we're recapping the Sentry Tournament of Champions at Kapalua.
The weekend started with what seemed like a sure victory for Collin Morikawa but ultimately ended in heartbreak. Morikawa looked in complete control through the front nine on Sunday, with a lead as large as nine strokes over Jon Rahm. However, a bogey on the 14th hole ended his bogey-free streak, and mistakes on the 15th and 16th holes ultimately cost him the win.
Rahm took advantage of the opening, finishing with four birdies and an eagle on the back nine to secure the victory. The eagle came on the 15th hole where he smashed a drive, leading to only a three-quarter 8-iron into the 541 yard par 5. The 3 stroke swing between Rahm and Morikawa on the 15th proved to be the difference with Rahm capturing a 2 stroke victory.
While it was a tough finish for Morikawa, he can take solace in the fact that his game looks strong and primed for a big year in 2023. Hats off to Rahm on an impressive 10-under final round and a big win to start the year.
