Jon Rahm — one of the 2021 U.S. Open betting favorites — was running out of time.
Down a stroke to Louis Oosthuizen with two holes to play, the fiery Spaniard stood over a 25-foot putt on the 17th hole knowing he had an opportunity. Rahm — well known for struggling to keep his emotions in check — settled for a brief moment and sunk a 25-foot left-to-right putt before punching the air with multiple fist pumps. On the 18th, Rahm stared down another impossible birdie attempt and became the first player since 1982 to birdie the last two holes of the U.S. Open and win by sinking another bending putt.
