Watch Pro golfer Jon Rahm smashes 426-yard drive


The next time somebody says that golfers aren't athletes, go ahead and pull up these videos and see what they say.

On the par-5 12th hole of a fiercely contested match between Jon Rahm and Bill Haas at the WGC-Dell Match Play Championship, the two tour players got in something of a driving contest. Ordinarily, Haas would've cruised to victory. He poked his drive a cool 390 yards - only to be surpassed by Rahm's 426-yard monster just a few minutes earlier.

Golf Digest's Alex Myers snapped a picture showing the distance between the drives.
