What else is Rahm not allowed to do with the green jacket on?
After talking about the dress code, Rahm revealed how there are things he is not allowed to do. “It’s complicated,” he said. “You can’t have a public appearance. Not you, the jacket can’t make a public appearance without them knowing”.
He further added, “I can’t be photographed with the jacket.” Moreover, the golfer can’t even be seen “having alcohol” while still wearing the jacket! Well, it definitely sounds like a great responsibility. But having to win the Masters to earn it, makes it all worth it! However, it’s only a matter of time before another golfer comes in next year and takes it away from Rahm. OR do you think he’s going to defend it along with the title in 2024?
