While specific details such as the baby’s gender and due date were not disclosed, the Rahm family’s excitement is palpable. Rahm’s playful comment about “officially moving to zone defense” adds a lighthearted touch to the announcement.

The golf community joins the superstar and his wife in celebrating their family happiness. For example, Layna Finau, wife of Tony Finau and mother of several children herself, commented under the post and congratulated the parents-to-be. Rahm’s compatriot Sergio Garcia also offered his congratulations, as did other LIV colleagues.

A college lovestory

Jon Rahm’s journey to golfing stardom is well-documented, but behind every successful man is often an equally remarkable woman. In Rahm’s case, that woman is his wife, Kelley Cahill. Their love story traces back to their college days at Arizona State University, where they began dating. Their relationship reached new heights when Rahm proposed to Cahill in June 2018, just before competing in the U.S. Open. The heartfelt proposal, complete with a ring designed by Rahm himself, set the stage for their fairy-tale wedding in Rahm’s hometown of Bilbao, Spain, in December 2019. Since tying the knot, Rahm and Cahill have welcomed two sons, Kepa and Eneko, into their family. Now the couple awaits a new addition to their family.
