Jon Rahm posts 78 at BMW PGA Championship, ties worst round on DP World Tour

Summary

Jon Rahm struggled during the opening round of the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth Golf Club, carding a 6-over 78. This performance ties his highest score on the DP World Tour, with only one birdie against five bogeys and a double bogey. Rahm's position at T-136 places him just ahead of Marcel Siem, who is currently last. His putting performance was poor, contributing to his score, despite ranking first in strokes gained putting on LIV Golf. Rahm's prior experience includes a similar score of 78 earlier this year at the Masters. The tournament is still underway, and Rahm will look to improve in the subsequent rounds.
