World Number 1 Golfer John Rahm Withdraws From Olympics (COVID positive AGAIN, twice in 2 months)

https://www.beinsports.com/en/olympics/news/rahm-withdraws-from-olympics/1724048



World number one Jon Rahm withdrew from the Olympics on Sunday after testing positive for Covid-19 for the second time in two months, the Spanish Olympic Committee confirmed.

Rahm, who stormed to victory at the US Open in June, returned a positive sample after undergoing mandatory testing following his recent participation in the British Open.

In early June, the 26-year-old Spaniard was forced to withdraw from the PGA Tour's Memorial Tournament after taking a six-shot lead after the third round after testing positive for Covid-19.




He is fully vaxxed btw, he had both jabs the 1st time, back in June, but was not out of the 14-day post 2nd jab window when he caught it the first time.

No idea if he’s vaccinated but considering what a colossal ass he is, probably not.
