SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Jon Rahm, a proud Arizona State alum, has worn a No. 42 Pat Tillman jersey on the 16th hole a few times in the past during the third round of the WM Phoenix Open.
He did so as an ASU student in 2015, playing in the event as an amateur. He did so again in 2018.

Thursday, when asked about doing it again this week, he said no then adjusted his answer to “probably not.”
“Probably not going to come out in a long time,” he said after his opening-round 4-under 67. “Not for lack of enthusiasm or willingness, more for sponsor conflict than anything else. Last time I checked, Travis Mathew doesn’t make football jerseys, right? So can’t really be endorsing somebody else.”
Travis Matthew is a golf apparel company that is owned by Callaway.
