Sun Devil Jon Rahm is on a roll in 2023, as he closed with a 4-under 68 to win The American Express i LaQuinta by one stroke last Sunday (Jan. 22), his second PGA Tour win in as many starts.
Rahm now has won four of his last six starts – he won the Sentry Tournament of Champions in Hawaii to start the year, and he won twice on the European tour at end of last year. This was his seventh straight top 10 worldwide, a streak that began after the Tour Championship in late August.
