(ANSA) – ROME, APRIL 30 – Jon Rahm’s great performance at the Mexico Open continues. In Vallarta, the Spaniard with a partial of 66 (-5) out of a total of 130 (64 66, -12), remained alone at the top of the PGA Tour tournament rankings and, in the middle of the race, precedes by two strokes American Alex Smalley, second with 132 (-10). On the Vidanta Vallarta route (par 71), he is brawling in third place (133, -9), occupied by six Americans: Adam Long, Andrew Novak, Cameron Champ, Patrick Reed, Trey Mullinax and Brandon Hagy.
Eight birdies and three bogeys for Rahm. The world number 2, for the seventh time in his career and in 123 appearances on the circuit, is leading a tournament on the PGA Tour after 36 holes.
So far, however, the 27-year-old from Barrika has never managed to convert this advantage (mid-race) into victory. At his eleventh appearance this season, the first since The Masters (where he ranked 27 / o), in 2022 he has already achieved four Top 10.
But the Spaniard in Mexico, in an event that is giving away 7,300,000 dollars, is chasing the seventh exploit (figure including a Major, the US Open won in 2021) on the PGA Tour. (ANSA).
