Fancy a real happy ending, better than Hollywood? Then read the story of Jon Rahm, winner of the 121st US Open and living proof that the sugar-coated stories of movie factories love to become reality in sports. The film begins with a flashback. Rahm, a Spaniard, leads by six strokes, almost uncatchable, before the final hole at the Memorial Tournament in Ohio State earlier this month. But as if the evil witch had scattered her poison, the 26-year-old tests positive for Corona shortly before the triumph and is disqualified from the tournament. Tears, drama, depression, that’s how one person would react – but the other is Rahm. Our hero, who proclaims on Twitter that it’s moments like this that shape an athlete. Shortly after, he gives us the full happy ending program. He picks up his first win at a major tournament. “It had to happen in a beautiful setting like this one,” he said after edging out rival Louis Oosthuizen by just one stroke. In doing so, Rahm immediately located higher powers. His victory fell on Father’s Day in the United States. His own parents were at his side for the first time at the US Open. And Rahm himself was playing his first major tournament as a dad – three-month-old son Kepa arrived on dad’s arm after the triumph. We are touched.
