PGA Tour Top 10 Power Rankings: WGC-Mexico Championship

Jon Rahm — 8th

Rahm made major headlines with his win at the Farmers Insurance Open last month, and he hasn’t slowed down since then, posting back-to-back top 16 finishes at TPC Scottsdale and Pebble Beach. After a busy stretch to open the new year, he’s taken it easy since Pebble, so he should be recharged for this week’s event. As we’ve seen over the past year, he’s not thrown off by unfamiliar courses. He also ranks third on the new PGA Tour season in total strokes gained and is eighth in birdie average, a testament to just how good he can be when he’s on.

Although he lacks experience, Rahm is already rightly regarded as one of the finest talents in the game of golf. He’s sure to see WGC success at some point in his future, and this week appears to be as good as any for a starting point.
