Jon Rahm was born to his parents, Edorta Rahm and Angela Rodriguez, on November 10, 1994, in Barrika, Biscay, Spain, according to Heavy.com. He has an older brother, Eriz Rahm, a golf instructor who works as a set designer at Bilbao-based Palacio Euskalduna Theater.

Who is John Rahm's father?

Edorta Rahm, who works in the gasoline industry, is Jon's father. After being inspired by the 1997 Ryder Cup at Valderrama, he introduced Jon to golf. Jon played golf at the Larrabea Golf Club, an hour from their home.

Participating in the Spanish children’s championship marked the beginning of Jon's serious pursuit of golf. After Jon secured a golf scholarship at Arizona State University, his father dropped him off at the airport with the advice of learning English if golf didn't work out.

“My dad literally just dropped me off at the airport, and said, ‘Goodbye, son. Let me know when you get there,'" Rahm told PennLive.

Talking about the same, he quoted his father, saying:

“If you don’t like it, the worst that will happen is you can learn English.”

Later, Jon Rahm's dad said his son always wants to accomplish and win more.

“I tell him, ‘Next year, achieving half of what you have done this year would be amazing... And he says, 'Yes, but…'” he revealed in an interview with Andalucia Golf.

Who is Jon Rahm's mother?

Ángela Rodríguez, a midwife, is Jon Rahm's mother. She started playing golf and took lessons from Eduardo Celles, later encouraging him to mentor Jon after seeing his ability. Ángela encouraged Jon's enthusiasm for golf by leasing a home close to the golf course for the weekends and summer, allowing him to practice regularly (via Heavy Sports).

What nationality are Jon Rahm's parents?

Ángela Rodríguez and Edorta Rahm are Spanish nationals.
