Jon Rahm, a professional golfer, stated on Tuesday afternoon that he will withdraw from the 2024 U.S. Open owing to an inflamed sore in between his left toes.
Rahm first announced the news on his personal social media accounts, noting that he took the choice based on what was best for his long-term health. He also voiced unhappiness with the decision.
Rahm created history in 2021 when he became the first Spanish player to win the US Open. Following this achievement, he extended his success by winning his first Masters tournament in 2023. Throughout his career, Rahm has won 11 PGA Tour events, cementing his status as one of the most accomplished players of his time.
Following Rahm’s withdrawal, golf fans flocked to social media to offer their thoughts on the injury. Many fans had only one word to describe Rahm: “soft.” Some have even compared Rahm to golf icon Tiger Woods.
