After entering the major season as the most heralded young player in years, Jon Rahm will leave the year emptyhanded. But at least he’s provided us with a few memorable moments, none better than the last hole of the day at the PGA Championship. Check out how he dealt with a hazardously-placed ball on the 18th at Quail Hollow:

Not bad at all, although he bogeyed the hole and finished +7 for the tournament. Of course, he could have taken the route of Jason Kokrak, who wasn’t scared to get his feet a little wet:
