Jon Rahm makes spectacular chip to help boost Team Europe in second day of Ryder Cup
Justin Rose makes a birdie putt to give Team Europe one point in the Ryder Cup.
Jon Rahm continued his outstanding play for Team Europe in the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black on Saturday.
Rahm won both of his matches to help supply two of the 5 ½ points Europe secured on Friday. On Saturday, Rahm had some more magic in store on the eighth hole of the morning session.
Rahm’s partner, Tyrrell Hatton, hit his tee shot on the par-3 eighth hole wide of the green and right on the edge of the bunker. The ball was embedded in the rough, and Rahm had to stand well below the ball in a bunker.

Rahm dug the ball out beautifully as it landed just as the green began and rolled straight into the hole for a miracle birdie. Rahm knew it was good right away as he walked out of the bunker and pointed in celebration before the ball dropped into the hole.
Team USA’s Xander Schauffele had a chance to respond to Rahm’s sensational shot with a chip of his own. Schauffele’s teammate, Patrick Cantlay, hit a wayward tee shot as well that left Schauffele in the rough.
