[Asia Economy Kim Hyun-jun, Golf Specialist Reporter] ○..."I'm a dad too."

World No. 3 Jon Rahm (Spain) announced on SNS on the 5th (Korean time) that his son was born. "His name is Kepa," and both the mother and son are healthy. Ahead of the 2021 season's first major, the Masters, which opens on the night of the 8th at Augusta National Golf Club (par 72) in Georgia, USA, it is interesting that he declared, "I will withdraw immediately and rush over when my wife, Kelley, gives birth." He can now participate in the tournament with peace of mind.

Rahm is from Barrika, Spain, graduated from the prestigious golf university Arizona State University in the United States, married his college classmate Kelley in 2019, and currently lives in Scottsdale. In January 2017, he won his first PGA Tour title at the Farmers Open. Last year was a highlight. With his victory at the Memorial Tournament in June, he became No. 1 for the first time in 31 years since Seve Ballesteros (1989) as a Spanish player, and in August, he secured his second win at the BMW Championship, the second round of the playoffs (PO).
