Jon Rahm, the Spanish Open presented by Madrid and the spectacle will once again join their destinies at the Club de Campo Villa de Madrid between October 8 and 11, where a new edition of one of the tournaments with the greatest historical standing on the DP World Tour will unfold.

The presence of the Basque player, an icon and indispensable reference of Spanish golf, immediately generates a huge accumulation of expectations favored by Rahm's fidelity to his commitment to participate in the most important professional golf tournament in our country.

Jon Rahm's participation immediately generates interesting historical connotations that highlight both the player and the competition itself. A three-time winner of the Spanish Open – in 2018, 2019, and 2022 – Rahm aims to surpass Severiano Ballesteros' record of three victories and, further still, Ángel de la Torre's five titles, achieved between 1916 and 1925, in an era when golf was radically different from today.

Apart from the victories, Jon Rahm's intense relationship with the Open de España presented by Madrid produces data that speaks of the Basque golfer's ability to generate spectacle, such as when, in 2022, he was crowned champion with the lowest result in the history of the tournament: 259 strokes and -25, an absolute record of the Open de España.

The memorable playoff tiebreaker played in 2024 with Ángel Hidalgo from Malaga is also among the highlights of this competition, attractions always highly valued by the spectators who come to the Club de Campo Villa de Madrid, which has registered tremendously significant public attendances in recent editions.

Behind Jon Rahm, confirming the immense talent of one of the best players in the world, lies an impressive list of achievements. The 2021 US Open, the 2023 Masters Tournament, victorious appearances in the Ryder Cup, dozens of wins across the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour, and five titles on the LIV Golf Tour, which he has been a part of since 2014—two of them this season, in Hong Kong and Mexico—cement his status as a charismatic player who guarantees a spectacular show both on and off the greens.
