Omnium Farmers Insurance | Jon Rahm in the top three at Torrey Pines

(San Diego) World No. 1 Jon Rahm is part of a field of three golfers leading the Farmers Insurance Open, totaling 13 under par after the second round played Thursday at the course in Torrey Pines, Calif. .

The Spaniard, who was fourth the day before, could have been the sole leader if he had not committed a bogey on his last hole, after having managed eight birdies.

“The score suggests that I played a lot better than I did,” Rahm tempered. “I had a hard time finding the fairway, but I’m happy with my putts. I’m happy with the way I handled the course. For the few fairways I hit, I was able to hit the greens from the long grass, which is pretty good.”

His altogether solid card of -7 is not the best of the day, however, since the American Adam Schenk, with whom he shares command, finished with -10, after having made ten birdies, including eight in a row between N.4 and N.11.

“What an incredible day! I didn’t even know how many I made consecutively. But I knew I had to capitalize on this series as long as I was playing as well and that’s what I tried to do, “commented the latter the day after his 30^and birthday.

Finally, the world No.6, Justin Thomas, impeccable with nine birdies in the bag, completes this trio.

The American Cameron Tringale, who, like Rahm, conceded a bogey on his last hole, after having nevertheless placed an eagle at N.5 and six birdies, follows the leaders at a length (-12).

Billy Horschel, who had dominated the proceedings on Wednesday, tumbled to 12^and rank (-8), notably weighed down by a double bogey at N.14.
