By GARRETT JOHNSTON Photos MICHAEL WEINSTEIN welve worldwide wins and five on the PGA Tour is the amazing record for Jon Rahm who’s still only been a pro since June 2016 when he put the golf world on full attention with his third place finish at the Quicken Loans National at Congressional Country Club. The fiery Spaniard got his first professional win and opened the floodgates of his talent starting at Torrey Pines when he won the 2017 Farmers Insurance Open in dramatic fashion punctuated by a 60-foot eagle bomb on the 72nd hole. When asked specifically why he loves Torrey Pines and its two courses, the Spaniard had zero hesitation.
