Miami – I wanted John Ram To say he is the best golf player in the world.
But he did not.
“This is a loaded question,” he said. “This is a loaded question.”
before Lev Golf MiamiWe were sitting in a quiet room on the second floor of the Trump National Hotel Above crystal chandeliers, marble floors, and blue pool bathrooms at the paragraph hotel, Rahm began to think about what the Great Championship deserves, about what his best biography in the world should seem to appear.
“You have been rested a lot in those major championships, right?” Tell Ram Fox Sports. “Suddenly, people began to care about what I said [after the U.S. Open win in 2021]”
By the end of the weekend, it will end in ninth (+1). It has never ended outside the top ten in any of its 17 -fly manifestations. Even with all that is the 10 best finishes, Ram does not seem satisfied with his individual victory in Lev compared to his league rival, Joaquin NiemannWho has four individual championships for the same period.
“I think many people prefer to get devices from statistics,” Ram said when asked about his operation in the best 10 years.
Perhaps this is the reason why I laughed at my “loaded question”. Because he felt that he was out of the base. With all this consistency, Rahm pointed out that his game is not the place where he wants to be.
“I didn’t play the comfort level that I would like to play,” said Ram. “There were times this year and a half, I would like to play worse than what my grades showed – just because I managed to publish good degrees and manage the game a little better.”
This looks … cruel.
“I am very critical,” Ram said with a muffled laugh. “I think my swing is not a liquid as I would like. I think there was a lot of thinking throughout the process, due to other factors related to the game. We do not have enough time for me to reach everything … I am not 100 percent confident that the shot that I was in mind will come out, because I was fighting some things – swing ideas.
It is the wine standard that it keeps, because it is the criterion required to win the majors. This is true, it’s a big season. The masters start within days. The Lev star will go to Augusta to challenge his league colleagues Praison Deschambo and Brooks Koepka And its competitors in PGA in Scotti Chefler and Rorre McLeroiAmong other things.
Ram will not escape the quality of the game he was getting. Not if he wants to win.
“You can get a player from this caliber talking about this part of his game,” said David Fahri, retired broadcaster, player and broadcaster. “[Rahm] It is like a V8 engine. There is one cylinder that does not work completely. I got this blocs [feeling] Sitting there on 500 hp. You know that he does not shoot all cylinders, but you can hear it coming. It is a matter of time with him only before he wins again. “
***
It started in 2023. People began to present it as “John Ram, Master’s champion”.
Ram told me that he wanted to remind these people: “And give us an open hero.”
Clearly, not all specializations are created equally. But just like MD for the doctor, the main victory is suspended by the same golf player. This main victory gives legitimacy to the player’s profession.
This is why some of the guidelines said that the RAM teammate, Niman, is not in the conversation as the best player in the world. Phil Meccson said that Niman is the best in the world. Others are not sure. Chilean did not finish in the first fifteen places in a specialty – not to mention winning one. Niman is wrestling with great pressure.
When I asked Ram to return and remember when he was in Niman’s shoes, Ram said that he did not feel pressure to win – and he did not feel a great feeling when winning. Because he did not look at himself differently. Others did.
He said: “I felt that I got the audience’s health verification and even the media. It seems suddenly what I was saying in important interviews than before, when I never changed my answer. It was really strange. It was as if I had … a new level of credibility, which is very interesting.” “But I also understand it, right?
He added: “Finally, the conclusion is. Continue.”
So … what next?
He thought of any specialty he wanted to win after that. In short, think about what might have to win the PGA championship – no Spanish has ever won the PGA – but there is another specialty that he desires more.
“Whenever you think about it now, getting the second green jacket means a lot in the sense of linking Seve [Ballesteros] And olie [José María Olazábal]Ram told Fox Sports. “Then reaching three specialties will make me in the third place in the Spanish list at all. It will also be great.”
The more RAM discussed the condition of his swing and the distance he feels that he is from the first place, the more urgency in his mentality. He is 30 years old and tastes champagne in a green jacket. But as soon as it is not enough. He dies to sit at an amazing distance on the main Sunday. Heck, he dies until a blow or two of the winner on the main Sunday. The whole thing is about the moments of greatness.
“These moments of pressure are what you live for,” said Ram. “You must put yourself there.”
John Ram is heading to Augusta looking for another green jacket.
It seems as if he was referring to his performance in LIV RIYADH, when he barely got out of the second tie (-15) but he was not in a real disagreement against the best technician, Niman (-17). In the aftermath of the tournament in his head, Ram seemed disappointed in his performance-or perhaps not affected by himself, as it was before Lev Miami. In the national, his performance was more than the same. It was briefly in the first place in the last round on Sunday, but some bad holes took it out of the competition. This seems to be due to the way these strong finishes come out, without the same boast.
But then, it’s also a little from the Ricky Bobby logo: If you are not first, you are the last time.
“When you play [in those pressure moments]Ram said: “Yes, you are proud of them when you finish playing. This is the most unforgettable thing. Heads and Bills. You remember because they all seem to be one game. And remember the end. “
Winning or losing, and close finishes are those that you never forget.
While we are on the subject of football, I asked Ram if there was Qurtubbeck similar to itself. It is, after all, the leader of the thirteenth legion. In many ways, it is Qortartbeck, the leader and the most influential members in the success of the team. Ram is to make a fair comparison. Why? Well, continue to clarify that it is all about championships.
Patrick MaqoumFor example, I felt a noble comparison, because Heads of Kansas QB draws of goats with goat, Tom Brady. To be in the conversation as one of the greatest? Ram does not think he is there yet.
“Maasms is much better than a professional football player than I have [been] He said: “As much, when you compare the greatest of this time in all ages, I did not fulfill enough to compare it anywhere near that.”
So who will be?
“Someone has always been consistent and truly good – aside – perhaps he was drawing BREES. As Brett Favre says, the character is aside.” “or Josh AllenJust because he is still young and he can win. ”
I like to compare Bress. He won in Super Bowl. With a quick release, Brees was the master of the short (or fast) game – but this was not the only thing he did well. With a brief spread, Rahm has a specific precision that mixes well with his aggressive choice. Price and RAM are both surgeons for their games.
But if there is any comparison we must do, that will be for the Formula 1 driver. After all, this was the goal of Lev: Put the events of the league team format such as Formula 1. So what driver F1 who feels rahm feels closely comparable? It actually made a more difficult comparison – again, due to championships and victory. He kept saying that he did not want to compare himself to Red Bull Racing Max VersabenWho has 63 wins and four drivers championships.
“young man Fernando [Alonso]Ram said.
Then he succumbed to the comparison he tried to avoid.
“Or a maximum. Just for their aggression without fear,” he said. “Achievements aside.”
Once again, I wanted John Ram to say he is the best golf player in the world. He did not.
But what he told me is that he has the mentality to be the best golf player in the world. For this reason, he likened the same young Alonso and Versaben. At this stage of the Ram profession, it comes to building his legacy. At the end of this week, he will get an opportunity to make sure that people offer him as a master’s champion twice. Then he can intervene and say: And the main winner three times.
