Jon Rahm no jugar� el US Open after consulting with different doctors. “After consulting with several doctors and my team, I have decided that it is best for my long-term health to withdraw from this week’s US Open Championship. To say I am disappointed is an understatement. I wish all participants have the best possible luck,” he said in a statement.
Hours before, he had appeared before the press with a flip-flop on his left foot., damaged by a strange skin lesion between the little finger and the next and had already shown his pessimism. “Although I’m better, I still feel pain. As for whether I’ll play this week, I don’t know,” he had told reporters.
The winner of the US Open in 2021 faced the third major of the season with greater preparation than the previous two. He had visited the scene two weekends ago, days in which he took the opportunity to play 36 holes, and, before, he had stopped by the Callaway laboratory in San DIego to change the driver shaft for the first time in his professional career with the Fujikura Ventus Black 7X and thus minimize the tendency to hit balls to the left.
“I don’t know the causes, but it got infected. On Saturday they infiltrated me and I was supposed to last the entire return, but from hole 2 onwards the pain appeared. I withdrew because I couldn’t make the swings I intended and before I forced too much and other parts of the body suffered, I decided not to continue. Could it have ended any trial? Clear”.
In a review of his season he had confessed that he was happy, despite everything. “I’ve had two bad weeks this season. I’m not playing as bad as you think. I’ve finished in the top 10 many times and I’ve had chances to win in most of the tournaments I’ve played. Then, unfortunately at Augusta and The PGA were not my best performances. But yes, I am happy. It has been a wonderful career so far. And yes, it has not been the best first half of the year, it does not mean that I cannot have a great finish.” .
