Golf-Rahm forced out of Memorial after positive COVID-19 test

“The PGA TOUR’s medical advisor notified Rahm immediately upon completion of his round, and under Tour protocols, he will be withdrawn from the competition,” the PGA Tour said in a statement. “While this is an incredibly unfortunate situation, throughout 50 events since the PGA Tour’s return to golf, there have been only four positive tests (including Rahm) within competition; Rahm is the first positive, asymptomatic case as part of the Tour’s routine, contact-tracing protocols.” Rahm was in the driver’s seat at the Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio and if he had gone on to win on Sunday, would have earned $1.674 million.
