British Open 2024: Golf Twitter’s Hilarious Reaction to Jon Rahm’s New Haircut
British Open 2024: Golf Twitter’s Hilarious Reaction to Jon Rahm’s New Haircut
A new tradition is emerging in the world of golf, and it’s not about birdies or eagles. Instead, it’s the spectacle of Golf Twitter collectively roasting the latest haircut of a top golfer during a major tournament.
Last month, Scottie Scheffler was the subject of online mockery when he debuted a fresh cut at Pinehurst just before the U.S. Open, showcasing his distinctive golfer’s tan. This follows in the humorous footsteps of Jordan Spieth’s infamous 2018 British Open haircut and Rickie Fowler’s memorable 2016 Olympic hairstyle.
Now, Jon Rahm joins this illustrious lineup. From the front and side, Rahm’s new haircut might seem unremarkable, but the view from the back has left many scratching their heads. Is that a soul patch? The Twitterverse certainly had questions and plenty of jokes to share.
Some speculate that Rahm’s haircut might be linked to his Legion XIII LIV team, while others suggest he’s been sporting this style for some time. However, Rahm’s recent foot injury, described in graphic detail earlier this week, has kept him out of the spotlight.
Despite the online ribbing, Jon Rahm might have the last laugh if his performance on the course proves exceptional.
