    Jon Rahm admits he feels a sense of embarrassment over his final round performance at the PGA Championship. The Spaniard did add, however, that he will take the “positives” from the week into the rest of the season.

    Rahm started the week bidding to secure his third major title, just like eventual winner Scottie Scheffler. He began Sunday’s round five shots behind Scheffler, and despite tying him for the lead midway through, Rahm ended up in joint-eighth place with Matt Fitzpatrick and Kim Si Woo.

    The 30-year-old’s flurry of birdies in the middle of the last round, coupled with an up-and-down front nine from Scheffler, meant that they shared the lead heading into the final few holes.

    However, Rahm’s ultimate collapse over his final three holes of a bogey and two double-bogeys meant that Scheffler took home the Wanamaker trophy.

    Speaking after the tournament, the Spaniard confessed his shame at how he ended the PGA Championship, but his analogy of the importance of his job has helped him through the awkwardness.

    Rahm said: “Am I a little embarrassed right now about how I finished today? Yes, but I just need to get over it.

    “It’s not the end of the world. I’m not a doctor or emergency personnel, someone who, if you have a bad day, real things happen.

    “I’ll move on, and it’s a positive rather than a negative thing that’s happened this week.”

    Despite the negative ending to his round, Rahm also shared that he was enjoying his time on the course, and that the feeling of this loss was very new to him. He added: “It was very tight.

    “My goodness, I hadn’t had so much fun on a golf course in a long time! The wound is quite fresh. But there have been many good things this week and many positive feelings for the rest of the year.

    “I think it’s the first time I’ve been in a position to win a major this close and I didn’t make it. The only times I think I’ve led a major on a Sunday, I’ve been able to secure the title, and this is a very different situation.”

    Describing his falter to the finish line, Rahm added: “I think it was a bit of nerves.”

    The golf calendar doesn’t slowing down for Rahm anytime soon, however, and he could return to action as early as June 6 to the LIV Golf Virginia tournament at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club.
