Jon Rahm fires an opening 64 (-7) at Congressional

Jon RahmJon Rahm, (@littleJRmaza) the No. 1 golfer in the World Amateur Golf Ranking has officially

joined #TeamTaylorMade and the professional ranks. As an Amateur, the long-hitting 21-year-

old Spaniard made college golf history when he became first two-time winner of the Ben Hogan

Award, an honor rewarded to the top player in college golf. He was also the low-amateur at the

116th U.S. Open finishing inside the top 25.

This week’s 2016 Quicken Loans National is Rahm’s first event as a pro. He didn’t hesitate to

shine firing 7 birdies for a Round 1 64, a score good enough for the clubhouse lead after day

one.

Rahm reported he had a room full of clubs after testing everything on the market throughout the

spring. Unsurprisingly, the driver is what really sold him on joining the team stating, "I tried

TaylorMade and I was really impressed with the driver, I really liked the driver. I felt like

TaylorMade products could make me the best player I can be, so that's why I chose to go with

them." He gamed an M2 driver at Oakmont where he ranked third in driving average (306

yards).

Rahm’s Equipment:

· M2 10.5° driver with Aldila Tour Green 75TX shaft

· M1 15° fairway with Aldila Tour Green 75TX

· M1 19° fairway with Graphite Design Tour AD-DI 8X

· Tour Preferred MB irons 3-PW with True Temper Project X 6.5X

· Tour Preferred EF Tour Grind 52°, 56°, 60° with True Temper Project X 6.5X

The 22-year-old former Oklahoma State standout is currently 13th in the World Amateur Golf

Ranking. In addition to his final WAGR, Jordan culminated his amateur career ranked 5th on

the Scratch Players Ranking, which along with the WAGR are the two most respected amateur

rankings. Niebrugge’s rise began in the summer of 2013 when he won the Wisconsin Match

Play Championship. He followed that up by stringing together a historic amateur winning streak

that included victories at the U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship, Wisconsin State

Amateur, and Western Amateur.
