The weather conditions at Augusta National gave a hard time to the players during the first two days of gameplay. The weather baffled the golfers as they struggled with the muddy course, which was caused by rain showers. Even so, the event ran on a delayed schedule due to the weather challenges. Amid this brutal situation, Jon Rahm successfully made the cut, advancing into the weekend.
After making the cut, Jon Rahm spoke about his struggles in an interview and how he tackled the situation at the course.
“I don’t know if it’s the mental strength or just the last effort… it’s very very difficult setup.”
Rahm continued about how the wind made it even more challenging to play, and one had to be lucky to score well on this course. He also talked about how it was a bad day for him, his swings didn’t go as expected and he wasn’t comfortable.
Rahm emphasized upon about how he somehow got into the weekend and has two rounds to make up for the twelve shots that can take him up on the leaderboard with Bryson DeChambeau. Thus, the Spaniard’s last plan is to score as low as possible on the weekend to crawl up on the leaderboard. Apart from Jon Rahm, there were top golfers who couldn’t make the cut into the weekend. But there were big names who ended up advancing into day three at Augusta National.
