SINGAPORE – A three-shot victory at LIV Hong Kong on March 8 evoked a wave of emotions for Jon Rahm, who finally
after an 18-month winless drought.
But the Spaniard barely had time to savour his win.
At 10am the next morning, he was already on the plane to Singapore, which will host the next LIV event from March 12 to 15.
The 31-year-old said: “Maybe you can celebrate the accomplishments afterwards, but it’s also a blessing that you have the opportunity to compete right away while you know you’re playing good.
“Momentum is a thing, but you also have to prove it, right? So you’ve got to keep working at it.”
Speaking at a press conference at Sentosa Golf Club on March 10, the two-time Major winner stressed the importance of staying in the present and not getting carried away, even after enjoying an encouraging start to the season.
Besides his win at the Hong Kong Golf Club, the world No. 36 also finished runner-up in Australia and Saudi Arabia, the first two events of 2026.
