The golfing community is still trying to come to terms with the shocking development in June. PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan‘s decision to join forces with their rival, LIV Golf left everyone involved with golf stunned. After this huge development, the top official received huge amounts of abuse from users and several players. However, some stood by his side and one again come into his support. One of these players is Jon Rahm.
The current world number three was among several top players who were kept in the dark. While Rahm, did mention feeling betrayed, the Masters champion has still stood by his boss. Before the Open Championship, he expressed his support to Monahan and has now once again made his stance clear.
Monahan was recently spotted during a meeting with players on Tuesday. The meeting though yielded poor numbers as very few players made their presence felt. Many of them have raised the question about their trust in him. Rahm though, has expressed his support and wants the commissioner given chance to make things right.
“I think he should have the opportunity right now to finish this off the way he did,” Rahm claimed. “I think we’re quickly forgetting how well he managed a lot of things. He did an amazing job in COVID and kept a lot of people employed,” the 2023 Masters champion added.
Jon Rahm makes hilarious request for immediate future
In the past few years, Jon Rahm has emerged as a marquee figure in golf. The Spaniard is one of the most recognizable faces of the PGA Tour and has continued to stay with them. A few days back he also turned down the chance of being rewarded with compensation and hoped this money went for the betterment of golf. He though, now has made an unusual request which has surprised everyone.
Rahm is currently preparing for the FedEx Cup playoffs. He is also ranked top of this leaderboard due to his outstanding year at the greens. Rahm like every other player was asked what changes he would hope in the immediate future. The golfer stunned everyone when he hoped for a “porta–potty on every hole“.
“I know this is going to sound very stupid- but as simple as having a freaking porta-potty on every hole. I know it sounds crazy, but I can’t choose when I have to go to the bathroom, right?” Rahm explained his decision. He would highlight how he has told the tour about this several times. Whether Rahm’s unusual request will be heard or not remains to be seen. It though certainly provided the fans with a moment to cheer and laugh upon.
