Jon Rahm produced one of those closing rounds that stays with you at the 2025 BMW PGA Championship, ending the week with a brilliant 66 (-6) on Sunday on Wentworth’s demanding West Course. The performance sparked a late climb up the leaderboard and secured a 13th-place finish, underlining—once again—how Rahm’s best golf tends to surface when the tournament reaches its most decisive moments.
Rahm completed the championship at 13-under par (275), building steadily through the week before delivering his sharpest, most complete round when it mattered most: the final day.
Sunday: 66 (-6), full-throttle attack and a big move up the board
Sunday was, without question, the headline of Rahm’s week. He came out with clear intent, combining aggression with control—the essential balance at Wentworth—and put together a near-flawless card. It was a round played with authority: high tempo, decisive strategy, and that extra touch of inspiration that turns a strong finish into a memorable one.
That closing six-under was the final push that transformed his week, leaving the sense that when his ball-striking is tidy and the putter cooperates, Rahm can make Wentworth look tailor-made.
