A frustrating round of golf can bring out strong emotions in everyone. The world No. 1 is apparently no different.
After a rough tee shot during Friday’s PGA Championship second round from Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, New York, Jon Rahm was caught by a nearby microphone voicing his displeasure in a hilarious — and NSFW — fashion.
On the Par 3 11th hole, Rahm’s iron shot initially landed on the green, but with the slick playing conditions at the course, it continued to roll just off the putting surface, past the fringe and barely into the rough.

Unsurprisingly, Rahm, who sat at 5-over and in 63rd place at the time, wasn’t happy to miss the opportunity at a birdie putt.

Rahm ultimately managed to save par on the hole, and though he finished the round 2-under, he sits at 4-over for the tournament, just one stroke below the projected cut line.
The 28-year-old’s best performance at the PGA Championship came back in 2018 when he tied for fourth, but it doesn’t seem he’ll be contending for a top-five finish this time around.
