Jon Rahm: Two-time major champion returns to home event at Open de Espana after ‘toughest week’ of career at Ryder Cup | Golf News

John Ram returned to the competitions in the tournament that was held at home in Spain after what he considered “the most difficult week at the mental level” in his career during the Rider Cup in New York.

Ram is in Madrid to try to win the Spanish Open title for the fourth time and passed the Saif Baltiros as the most successful golf player in the championship since the creation of the European round in 1972.

The 30 -year -old helped Europe win the Rider Cup in the United States two weeks ago, when the local fans tortured the European players from the beginning.

“This week in New York was the most difficult week in my mental career, but at the same time it was more enjoyable.” Sky Sports Golf.

“What happened there during those three days was something that is not hosted. Sometimes I couldn’t believe it.”

Ram collaborated with Terrell Hatton at Bethpage Black and they were one of the most targeted Europeans by the New York fans.

Ram said that he heard all of this from the American masses and that “things were out of control” during the morning sessions due to alcohol consumption.

“You can compare it with football, but you have the noise of 50 thousand people and don’t actually hear what everyone says,” Ram said.

“In my case, in every step I step, I heard everything.”

Ram said that the result could not be better as Europe won to keep the title it won two years ago in Rome.

“It will be difficult to excel this week, perhaps in 2031 Rider here in Spain, which will be more privacy for me than anyone else,” Ram said.

Ram will appear for the seventh time in Madrid, and his victories will come in 2018, 2019 and 2022. The runner -up of his Spanish citizen, Angel Hidalgo, was in a separate match last year.

Baltiros won his last fifty titles in the European round in the 1995 Spain Championship. This will be the first time that the tournament has provided an automatic place for the winner of the Master Championship and the Open Championship next year.

“Very proud of that,” said Sergio Garcia, another player who is preferred by the local fans.

“It is a kind of showing the quality of the field we have this week.”

Ram and Garcia, the winners of Spain in 2002, are among the LIV players in the field. This week, Patrick Reed, Jawakin Niman, and Shin Laurie, who made the goal to keep the cup for Europe in the Rider Cup.

This also coincides with the fiftieth anniversary of the victory of the Great Golf player Arnold Palmer in the tournament in 1975.
