Jon Rahm has been disqualified from participating in the final round of the PGA Memorial Weekend Golf Tournament. Sportscam Detective disagrees with this poorly thought out decision.
Since Mr. Rahm had already finished his third round he should be allowed to come onto the course well after the other participants are either several holes ahead and there is no chance of contamination or after they have complete their days activities.
When the PGA / COVID rule was created, I doubt anybody put much thought into this exact scenario that has occurred in which a golfer who was leading by plenty tests positive with only one round left.
Let Mr. Rahm play on Sunday, just make sure it is after the other players and fans have moved on and are much farther down the course.
This is the problem with living with quickly made up rules and then not being able to pivot at the last minute. Shame on the PGA.
