Jon Rahm dominates in Mexico as LIV turbulence stays in the background

Jon Rahm surged to a commanding six‑stroke victory in Mexico City, closing with a bogey‑free sixty‑four at a LIV Golf event overshadowed by speculation about the tour’s stability. After a disappointing Masters, Rahm immediately built on his two‑shot overnight lead, opening with three birdies and a tap‑in eagle to remove any suspense from the individual contest. He admitted surprise at the margin, noting how poorly he had played the previous week.

Rahm’s Legion XIII also secured the team title comfortably, with Tyrrell Hatton and Tom McKibbin contributing crucial scores. The tournament proceeded as normal despite reports of potential financial uncertainty, following assurances from LIV leadership that the season would continue. Rahm finished at twenty‑one under, ahead of David Puig and Jose Ballester, while Hatton slipped after an early double bogey. It marked Rahm’s second win of the season, reinforcing his status as the tour’s dominant force despite the noise surrounding it.
