Can Jon Rahm overhaul a six shot 54 hole deficit in the Open de Espana?
The World No. 1 trails pace-setter Rafa Cabrera Bello heading into the final round at Club de Campo Villa de Madrid.
A week that started off so well for Jon Rahm ground to something very near a halt on Saturday at the Open de Espana.
The World No. 1 arrived in Madrid hoping to join his hero Seve Ballesteros as a three-time winner of the tournament and on Thursday morning it looked like he was going to leave the field in his wake right from the get-go.
Spanish swings and home support 🇪🇸

Watch by Real Madrid's Gareth Bale, he stumbled early, making a bogey at the third and a double bogey at the fifth.

The question, therefore, is whether Rahm's Saturday woes have made him, at 12/1, a worthwhile bet.
