Stock Watch: Rahm rising at right time
Each week on GolfChannel.com, well examine which players stocks and trends are rising and falling in the world of golf.RISINGJon Rahm (+9%): For months weve heard about this kids immense gifts and monster potential, about the quality of his game when it all comes together. Which is why therell be plenty more weeks like his blowout victory in Northern Ireland.X-Man (+6%): Nothing flashy here: Xander Schauffele showed improvement each year in college, and he has shown the same development in the pros, earning his card in his first try, contending in a major and then winning his first Tour event. Thats how its done.Chesson Hadley (+4%): Here was one of the most heartwarming moments of the year, as the former PGA Tour Rookie of the Year buried his face in his hat and cried after winning on the Web circuit. Its been a long, tough climb back to relevance, and it showed.Beau (+3%): Hossler started the year with no status anywhere, after his 2016 NCAA Player of the Year season was cut short following shoulder surgery. Now, after another runner-up finish, he is in position to earn his Tour card for next season. Good stuff.Bones (+2%): Maybe in a few years hell be lured back onto the fairways by another big-time player. But the belief here is that hell soon become a TV star with a fresh, unique perspective on the game.
FALLINGSebastian Munozs putting (-1%): Whats the difference between the first three rounds and the final round on the PGA Tour? Check out Munozs putting stats from the Greenbrier. He buried nearly 400 feet worth of putts over the first three rounds, by far the most of any contender, to take a two-shot lead through 54 holes. On Sunday, he was the worst putter in the field, sinking only 32 feet of putts. One word: Pressure.Rory (-2%): At least Munoz made some putts. There are two majors in the next five weeks, and McIlroy looks as lost as ever on the greens, missing another cut and growing increasingly frustrated.Opinionated LPGA pros (-3%): Brittany Lincicome is going dark on Twitter this week after she received flak for saying what most would agree is a logical statement that President Trump should steer clear of this weeks U.S. Womens Open at Bedminster, so he doesnt detract from the competition. Unfortunately, were going to see and hear a lot of no comments this week.Reasonable judgment standard (-5%): While reviewing Rahms mark on a 1-foot putt, European Tour officials invoked the new standard (announced in April) that puts more emphasis on a players integrity than video review. But even though Rahm was cleared by officials, he was guilty in the court of public opinion. His careless mistake the replaced mark was maybe an inch from the original spot overshadowed his dominant victory, and thats a shame.Ex-anchorers (-7%): By vehemently denying that they are violating the anchoring ban, Bernhard Langer and Scott McCarron just put themselves under a high-powered microscope for the foreseeable future. Theyve putted so well this season because of a clear mind. Why add more doubt and suspicion?
Rahm won that match, beating Woods, 2 and 1, but it wasn't easy. With a putt on the 17th hole to close out the match, Rahm's mind, which can be a tad busy at times, was racing.
