Jon Rahm targets another Open de Espana victory after fun Ryder Cup

Jon Rahm is ready to be a "little bit more selfish" this week as he targets a fourth Open de Espana title after helping Europe clinch Ryder Cup glory.

The 28-year-old Spaniard returns to Madrid's Club de Campo aiming to successfully defend his home national open once again on the back of playing an integral part in Europe's thrilling victory in Rome.

Rahm hopes to take that collective positivity into the rest of the season as he refocuses on his individual performances.

"It was an extremely fun week," Rahm, who was unbeaten as he claimed three points from four matches, told the DP World Tour website.

"I think it was the most enjoyable Ryder Cup I've had so far. I played good golf and the team ended up winning.

"It was exciting and exhilarating and, when it comes to being part of the team, it was so special.

"It is hard to explain what goes on behind closed doors, but that was about as much fun as a person as I can have because all those players, all those friends were absolutely incredible and you can feel those bonds strengthening on that same week, day by day."

Rahm added: "You have to make a conscious effort to change for the Ryder Cup, then after that it is almost reverting back to maybe being a little bit more selfish."

Despite all of the attention on him, Rahm intends to remain focused on delivering another composed display.

"There is certainly a little bit more to do off the golf course this week, so you need to compartmentalise really well and manage your time very well running around Madrid - it is a city and there is a lot going on," said Rahm, whose first Open de Espana title came in 2018.

"I have just got to try to split my time as best I can, but still be selfish because I need my own time to be able to perform."
