Jon Rahm found himself in a tricky situation during the second round of the 2024 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, as the Spaniard battled a tough lie on the 12th hole at the Old Course. Surrounded by seaweed near his ball, Rahm carefully cleared the debris before delivering a remarkable shot that led to a world-class par save. Despite the moment of brilliance, Rahm’s round wasn’t without its challenges.
Rahm carded four bogeys throughout the day but countered them with three birdies and a stunning eagle, finishing the second round with a 71. At 8 under par, Rahm sits T-29, trailing tournament leaders Nicolas Colsaerts and Cameron John by six shots heading into the weekend.
The Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, a celebrated stop on the DP World Tour, is played across three iconic Scottish courses—Carnoustie, Kingsbarns, and the Old Course at St. Andrews. Rahm, like all participants, gets a crack at each venue over the first three rounds before the tournament shifts to its final stretch.
With two more rounds to play and Rahm still within striking distance, the weekend promises plenty of excitement as the world-class golfer looks to climb the leaderboard.
