Jon Rahm is currently facing Scottie Scheffler in the singles match at the Ryder Cup. Although he is behind Team USA's top OWGR-ranked player, the former is still dazzling fans with his exceptional golfing skills at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club in Rome.

The Ryder Cup Europe shared a video on their X (formerly Twitter) handle in which the Spanish golfer was seen hitting a shot off the cliff. The ball landed almost near Scheffler's ball and about 40-50 feet away from the hole.

One of the fans was so stunned to see the blistering drive from Jon Rahm that he wrote,

"I saw it, and I’m still not convinced that’s even possible."

Another fan called it the "shot of the Ryder Cup".

Despite Scottie Scheffler being 1 Up against the Spanish golfer, one of the fans wanted Rahm to win the singles match. He explained that if the latter wins the match, Team Europe will cruise to a victory in the tournament, and if he doesn't, his team would have to struggle for each and every point at the Ryder Cup.

Another fan called it "insane" that Rahm got the ball out of that cliff and landed it onto the greens of Marco Simone Golf and Country Club in Rome.

Here are some other top comments from the fans:
