The Masters crowned Jon Rahm today in Augusta. Spain’s star shot a final-round 68, winning by 3 at -12. Brooks Koepka led by 4; Rahm’s back-nine 32 flipped it. Green jacket’s his—first major since 2021’s U.S. Open. Augusta’s magic struck again.
Koepka bogeyed 12; Rahm birdied 13—game over. His 8-iron to 3 feet on 14 had patrons buzzing. Rain delayed play Saturday; Sunday’s grind paid off. Koepka’s 75 sunk him—LIV Golf’s debut here fades. Rahm’s putter woke up; clutch.
It’s not spotless—early 71 had him chasing. Wind messed with everyone; trees fell Friday. Critics say LIV split weakened the field—Rahm disagrees. Masters purse hit $15 million—money talks. Tradition held; Spain cheered.
Rahm’s 29, peaking—next is PGA in May. Koepka reloads; rivalry’s on. Augusta’s azaleas faded; Rahm bloomed. Golf’s king for a day.
