💬 @JonRahmOfficial talks through his Champions Dinner experiences REPORTER: "You've attended now a couple of these Masters Champions Dinners. I'm wondering how the experience is maybe different or surprising in ways that - different than you expected, I guess?" RAHM: "I've attended two. One was my own, and then the other one would have been Scottie's, very different experiences. Being your own, quite nerve-racking having to sit next to Mr. Crenshaw, Mr. Ridley, and looking to your left and your right seeing the icons of this game. Looking to my left and seeing Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus and a couple of spots down is Tiger and Mark O'Meara. You look straight ahead, and there's Gary Player and Nick Faldo. So very daunting, very daunting." "Very worried about having to give a speech, I'm not going to lie, very emotional moment. And the fact that it was, again, on April 9th, which would have been Seve's birthday when we had the dinner made it a little bit more emotional." "Still probably one of the coolest experiences of my life because given to the date that it was and Mr. Crenshaw alluding to it, all of those greats had spent time with Seve, starting with Ollie telling stories about Ryder Cups and previous matches with him." "For somebody that's researched as much as possible, those are stories I've never heard and maybe they've never told anybody. It was quite unique to see a full room of grown men, in essence, acting like kids again because of the love they have for this game and the stories of Seve. So for me, that's about as special as a dinner can get." "Second one being Scottie's, sitting next to Sergio and Jose, almost like a dream come true. Obviously we're only missing Seve being able to sit beside those two. In between them was special and very fun in a different way. A lot of it was pressure in a lot of ways, but it's a very fun and unique experience that it's still hard to wrap my head around that I'm going to be able to do it for the rest of my life. So it's unique." #TheMasters
