Spain’s Jon Rahm won the 87th Masters for his second major title and reclaimed the world number one ranking as a result
AUGUSTA (UNITED STATES) – Jon Rahm delivered tension-packed clutch shots down the stretch on Sunday to win the Masters, capturing his second major title to reclaim the world number one ranking.
The 28-year-old Spaniard held firm when 54-hole leader Brooks Koepka fell apart, playing iron-solid and mistake-free golf until the final hole to methodically fend off Koepka and Phil Mickelson, foiled in his bid at age 52 for a seventh major victory.
Rahm fired a three-under par 69 to finish 72 holes at Augusta National on 12-under 276 to defeat Koepka and Mickelson by four strokes.
