Quotes
 
Rahmn recently opened up about his mentality which helps him accept failure, which, in golf, is essential for improving every aspect of your game.
 
“You can try as hard as you want, but you won’t always get the chance to succeed, and this is golf,” Rahm said on Golf.com.
 
“So it’s easier to give it my all on a drill for 10 minutes and then change to the next one. Because if you do poorly, you kind of need to let it go and go to the next one and try to accomplish that.”
