During Thursday’s episode of The Eli Manning Show, golfer Jon Rahm was asked about the worst celebrity golfer he’s played with. Surprisingly, Rahm didn’t hesitate to name NFL star J.J. Watt. This came as a shock to many, considering Watt’s athleticism and years of experience playing golf. It’s unusual to call out someone like Watt, who could easily overpower anyone with his strength.
Rahm’s comment seemed to catch Watt off guard, too, as he likely didn’t expect to be labelled the worst among celebrity golfers Rahm has played with. Rahm even tried to soften the blow by joking about Watt’s strength, but the damage was done. It remains to be seen if their relationship will be affected by Rahm’s candid assessment.

While Rahm may have the upper hand on the golf course, some suggest settling their differences with the Oklahoma Drill, a football training exercise. It’s a humorous suggestion to resolve any lingering tension between Rahm and Watt, showcasing a playful way to patch things up, if needed.
