Jon Rahm becomes father to baby boy Kepa days before the Masters

Jon Rahm is heading to Augusta National Golf Club as a father.

Just days before the 2021 Masters the 26-year-old posted a photo alongside his wife on Instagram to announce the birth of their baby boy, Kepa, on Saturday morning.

“Momma Kelley is doing great and recovering. Kepa is also in great health,” Rahm wrote in the post about his 7.2 lb., 20.5 inch “big boy from the Basque Country.”

“Without a doubt the greatest day of my life!” wrote Rahm, who had previously said that he would leave any tournament, even the Masters, to be present for the birth of his son.

Rahm, who has finished in the top 10 in his last three Masters starts, is scheduled to talk to the media on Tuesday at 9:30 a.m. ET.
