Crazy stuff, will Patrick Cantlay and theircaddies have to isolate too ?
Couldn't they create their own bubble and still play Sunday.
I heard Rahm say "not again ", has he tested positive before or been disqualified before ?

seems a close contact of Rahms tested positive monday and hes been having to be tested every day and known if he tested positive he would be pulled, assume the same will apply to his playing partners and theyve been tested every day and if they test negative will play

devils advocate, they told him the second he walked off 18 he had tested positive, when did the tour know he had failed the test and why not tell him immediately and pull him off the course?

They knew at 6.05pm when they got the result of the second test

what time did he finish his round in US time?

Can't have been very long after that - I was watching the Women's Open so not sure of exact time

call me cynical but feels a little convenient they got his test result as he was walking up 18

Out of isolation a couple of days before the US Open..some warm up thats going to be....

I'm feeling more for his caddy and team. They are missing a big chunk of money coming their way. Rahm might not miss it but I bet they will notice.

It wont happen but could Rahm not play the last round on his own? It's outdoors, easy to keep clear of any marker. A bit of creative thinking...........It's a pretty hollow victory for whoever wins now.

But what is gained and by whom by waiting for him to finish? And which would be 'lost' if he came off earlier?

Poor blighter has lost an almost certain victory!

Being the answer to future quiz questions must be little comfort...

Why should there be creative thinking to allow 1 Golfer to risk other peoples health?

He’s positive and therefore should follow the protocols laid down.

May sound over the top, but this virus is still killing people and there should be no exceptions for those who test positive.

I reckon his caddy is pretty much already set for life with his level of earnings

I bet Abraham Ancer is pleased he came over to Germany this week..2 76s and he's going home...should have played Jack's tournament...

That's on me, I'm afraid I put him in my fantasy line-up. Sorry Abraham mate.

Bad news indeed, I really hope Rahm doesn't get seriously ill, and recovers soon.
But on the bright side I have Cantlay in my fantasy team .

This is horrific, his dad and uncle both committed suicide last year

8 players withdrew from the Palmetto thing. Not sure if that's typical.

Mind, Hensby had a 10 shot penalty so had an excuse ?
