He became the sixth Spaniard to win the tournament since 1972, joining Seve Ballesteros and Sergio Garcia, among others. Rahm admitted he found it difficult to handle the expectations placed on him.

Rahm will take a week off before returning to the PGA Tour in two weeks when he teams with Wesley Bryan at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans.--cmangano
