After securing a victory at LIV Golf Hong Kong on March 8, 2026, two-time-major winner Jon Rahm now has the chance to achieve something he has rarely experienced in his career.
The win in Hong Kong ended a long wait for Rahm’s next individual title. His final-round 64 pushed him to 23-under par and gave him a three-shot victory over Thomas Detry.
It was the eleven-time PGA Tour winner’s first individual win since LIV Golf Chicago in September 2024, ending a stretch of 539 days without a victory.

With that result behind him, Rahm now turns his attention to the next event on the schedule, LIV Golf Singapore, set for March 12–15.
Speaking at the LIV Golf Singapore press conference on Tuesday, the 31-year-old acknowledged the opportunity ahead of him this week.
“It would be first time since 2023. I think I’ve only done it very few times in my career that I’ve been able to go back-to-back, and usually they’re spaced out with weeks in between, not back-to-back weeks. It would be a huge accomplishment. I hope I can give myself the chance on Sunday.”
Jon Rahm sees a chance to secure consecutive victories as the LIV Golf schedule moves to Singapore
Rahm has not often won in consecutive weeks during his career. The most recent instance came in early 2023 during his time on the PGA Tour.
He first won the Sentry Tournament of Champions on January 8, 2023, and followed it with another victory at The American Express on January 22.
While an individual win did not come during the 2025 season, Rahm still stayed near the top of the standings.
The 2023 Masters Tournament winner’s consistent finishes helped him secure the season-long Individual Championship in the LIV Golf League for the second straight year after also claiming the title in 2024.
Now, with a win already secured in Hong Kong, Rahm arrives in Singapore with the opportunity to add another victory and record consecutive tournament wins.
What do you think, can Jon Rahm secure back-to-back wins this week? Let us know in the comments!

Jon Rahm’s Anger and the Quiet Pain of 2025’s Penalised ProsFrom Jon Rahm to Michael Kim, 2025 has been full of unforgettable moments in professional golf. These top players made headlines not just for their skill, but for viral on-course incidents and surprising rule penalties. These incidents show that in golf, following the rules is just as important as making that perfect shot. Golffile Thos Caffrey/EDI/ImagoJon Rahm came back to the Spanish Open aiming to win a record fourth title. The tournament was held at Club de Campo Villa de Madrid and featured top players like Shane Lowry. Fresh off the Ryder Cup, Rahm faced high expectations from fans and the home crowd, putting him under extra pressure to perform. Ben Hsu/Icon Sportswire/ImagoDuring his first round, Rahm found his ball in the left rough on the par-4 eighth hole. He muttered, “What a day,” followed by an expletive. When a marshal tried to comfort him by saying, “It’s OK,” Rahm snapped, “Don’t tell me it’s OK, please. Thank you.” The marshal apologised and walked away. Rahm finished the round with a 1-over 72, showing that even a short temper can’t stop a pro from performing. Golffile Fran Caffrey/ImagoMichael Kim faced trouble on the 14th hole in Memphis. After a poor tee shot into the water, he dropped near the red hazard line. Later, a rules official showed him a video proving his ball was on the line. Since any part of the ball cannot touch the hazard line, he was assessed a two-stroke penalty. Ken Murray/Icon Sportswire/ImagoKim admitted he didn’t take enough time to make sure his drop was legal and said it was “not my best moment.” He took the penalty in stride, calling it a learning experience. Thankfully, it didn’t affect his ranking for the next tournament, but it served as a reminder that golf demands attention to every detail. Michael Wade/Icon Sportswire/ImagoAt Augusta National during the third round of the Masters, Min Woo Lee faced a setback on the 13th hole. His ball moved in the fairway, and officials determined his actions caused it to move. Under Rule 9.4b, this is a one-stroke penalty. Lee finished the hole with a bogey, ending the round at 77, tied for 49th. Sam Navarro/ImagoLee accepted the penalty and focused on the rest of his round. He showed professionalism and kept his composure, emphasising respect for the rules. This incident highlighted how even small actions near the ball can have big consequences in professional golf. Golffile Jason O Brien/ImagoSam Bairstow found himself in controversy at the Nexo Championship in Scotland. After hitting a wayward drive on the 14th hole, his ball ended up in heavy rough. Video evidence later showed he failed to replace the ball properly, a clear breach of the Rules of Golf. Bairstow disqualified himself once the infraction was pointed out. Golffile Thos Caffrey/EDI/ImagoThe DP World Tour fined Bairstow €25,000 for breaching the Code of Behaviour. Fellow pros questioned the consistency and transparency of sanctions. Bairstow expressed regret for the mistake and stressed the importance of integrity, showing that even top pros can be caught off guard. Golffile Steven Flynn/EDI/ImagoChina’s Yan Liu was hit with a two-stroke penalty for slow play during the second round of the Evian Championship in France. She exceeded the time limit on the par-5 seventh hole, resulting in a penalty that ultimately caused her to miss the cut by three shots. Andre Engelmann/ImagoLiu took the penalty in stride, demonstrating determination despite the setback. The incident highlighted the LPGA’s stricter pace-of-play rules and reminded players that staying focused and moving at the right pace is just as important as making accurate shots. Amy Lemus/Lemus-Meijerlp/ImagoDuring the second round of the 2025 Travellers Championship, Russell Henley showed remarkable sportsmanship. On the par-3 8th hole, he noticed his ball had moved slightly during his backswing. Even though no one else saw it, Henley immediately called a one-stroke penalty on himself, turning what could have been a par into a bogey. Amy Lemus/ImagoHenley said the incident on the 8th hole was more than just a rules call; it was a teaching moment for his son, who was watching him play. He explained that moments like these show the true spirit of golf, where honesty and integrity matter above scores. By calling the penalty on himself, Henley reinforced that doing the right thing, even when no one is watching, is what defines a true sportsman. Charles LeClaire/Imago
