CNN —It’s been quite the year for Jon Rahm – and he’s got the prize money to prove it. A runner-up finish at the Mexico Open on Sunday took the Spaniard’s PGA Tour season earnings to $14,462,840, setting a new Tour record for money earned in a single season. With $49,486,883 in total earnings since joining the PGA Tour in 2016, Rahm looks set to pass the $50 million mark imminently upon his return. The American had finished joint-second, one shot shy, of Rahm at last year’s event, but improved his total by eight shots to end on 24-under and clinch his sixth PGA Tour title. Orlando Ramirez/Getty ImagesGiven his form, Rahm looks well-placed to add to his two majors and 11 PGA Tour titles this year, but the 28-year-old is keeping his feet firmly on the ground.

April 30 (Reuters) - Jon Rahm fell short in his bid to successfully defend his Mexico Open title on Sunday but the Spaniard's second place finish set a new benchmark for the most money won in a single season on the PGA Tour. World number one Rahm, who counts a Masters triumph among his four PGA Tour wins this season, made $839,300 for finishing second at Vidanta Vallarta, bringing his 2022-23 season total to $14,462,840. That tops the previous record of $14,046,910 set last season by 2022 Masters winner Scottie Scheffler. While disappointed in falling short, Rahm said this week offered a good reminder that past results and one's standing in the world of golf are no guarantee of future success. "A great reminder that what you've done means absolutely nothing, you still have to go out there and do it.

"Obviously I would love for this to be something I'm doing in Spain right now this close to the Masters, but this is the next closest thing," Rahm told reporters on Wednesday. Rahm has made six prior starts as the defending champion on the PGA Tour and his best result in those title defences came at La Quinta in 2019 when he finished in sixth place. In 11 PGA Tour events this season, Rahm has four wins, seven top-10 finishes and zero missed cuts. It was a lot of fun, played good golf," said Rahm. "Feeling good with the game where it's at right now."
