Jon Rahm loses it on LIV Golf drone after disastrous swing: ‘F–king incredible’

Jon Rahm isn’t a fan of the drones flying overhead during the LIV golf tournament broadcast.

The Spaniard didn’t hold back after his tee shot on the sixth hole went into the water, but apparently blamed it on the noise of a broadcasting drone flying overhead.

“It’s unbelievable every tournament. This f**king drone on the backswing every single time,” a microphone picked up Rahm saying angrily.

Judging by Rahm’s comments during a LIV Golf Nashville event at The Grove on Sunday, this wasn’t the first time Rahm has been bothered by a drone.

The moment must have been especially painful because Rahm was just two strokes behind the leader when his ball landed in the water on the par-four hole.

Rahm made a double bogey, the worst score to that point for any golfer who had already completed the sixth hole.

Rahm’s mistakes left him four strokes behind leader Tyrrell Hatton.

Things got better for Rahm on the next hole when he birdied to close the gap to three strokes behind Hatton.

The LIV Golf Nashville tournament was Rahm’s first tournament since he had to withdraw from the U.S. Open due to a foot infection.

Rahm moved from the PGA Tour to LIV Golf in December.

The Spaniard is taking solace in the fact that he wasn’t the only one to experience a bit of rage in Music City on Sunday.
