Have to feel for John Rahm after he was leading by six shots with one round to play and was disqualified for testing positive to covid.
Apparently, he entered the tournament knowing he had be around people who had tested positive.
The pga tested him each day of the tournament.
Either way, its a poor result and whoever wins it from here on will surely feel it to be a hollow victory.
I tend to think he should be allowed to play and be able to stay segregated during the course of play, keeping in mind they let him start the tournament knowing that he was a good chance of being co-vid positive, so they had already taken the risk, eh.

Tough for Rahm, but I can't see that there was any choice but to disqualify him.
They didn't disqualify him, but he withdrew due to the positive covid test........small technicality
