"What the f**k is that doing?" - Jon Rahm's hot mic moment at LIV Golf Mexico caught on camera

Jon Rahm had a hot mic moment on the final day of LIV Golf Mexico City. The event was held from April 25 to 27 at Club de Golf Chapultepec in Mexico City, Mexico.

On the tee shot of the 625-yard par-5 7th hole, Legion XIII captain Jon Rahm wasn't happy after launching a drive that veered far to the right. Rahm frustratingly said:

"What the f**k is that doing? How does that move so far right off the top? F**king altitude, how does that move that far to the right?"

Popular golf account NUCLR Golf posted the clip of Rahm's outburst. The video can be watched below:

This is not the first time Rahm's unfiltered reaction has been caught on camera; similar moments have been caught at the 2024 LIV Golf Miami and at last year's Masters.

Rahm started strong at the tournament and posted a 7-under par 64 with nine birdies and two bogeys. However, he had mediocre second and third rounds, where he scored 69 and 68, respectively. He finished in fourth place with a total score of 12-under.

Torque GC's Joaquin Niemann won the tournament with a score of 16-under. Lucas Herbert and Bryson DeChambeau tied for second with 13-under.

Even though Rahm couldn't win the tournament, his team, Legion XII, won the team event with an aggregate score of 28-under by two strokes over Cameron Smith-led Ripper GC. His team member Tyrrell Hatton tied for fifth with 11-under, while Caleb Surratt tied for 11th with 7-under.

Legion XIII is at the top of the season's standings with 130 points, 17 points ahead of Fireballs GC. This is their second victory this season. The former's first victory came at LIV Golf Riyadh.
