NASSAU, Bahamas – Jon Rahm grew up idolizing Tiger Woods, so earlier this fall during the Tour Championship he made the most of an opportunity.
“He was putting next to me and I asked him, because I'm not the best putter on Bermuda grass and I know it's kind of funny to say that now,” Rahm said. “I said, ‘Hey, Tiger can you please teach me how to putt on Bermuda?’”
Woods laughed and offered some passing advice, “He told me it’s all about feel,” Rahm recalled.
The episode wasn’t lost on either Woods or Rahm on Sunday at the Hero World Challenge, where the Spaniard rolled to a four-shot victory at Albany, which has Bermuda grass greens.
