Jon Rahm hangs on for Memorial win to become world No. 1

It wasn't quite the romp it once seemed destined to become, but in the end Jon Rahm did just enough to get the trophy at the Memorial Tournament. Here's how things ended up in Dublin, as Rahm got his first win of the year despite a late penalty and became world No. 1 in the process:

Leaderboard: Jon Rahm (-9), Ryan Palmer (-6), Matthew Fitzpatrick (-5), Jason Day (-4), Matt Wallace (-4)

What it means: Rahm started the final round with a four-shot lead, and he had doubled that margin by the time the leaders made the turn.
