JON RAHM is coping with the extreme mental pressure on the course – thanks to the work of a bomb disposal expert.<\/p>\n
The Spanish golfer will help lead the European team in this weekend\u2019s Ryder Cup in Rome.<\/p>\n
\n \n<\/p>\n
And while he leading the European charge on the fairways at Marco Simone, he will have the wise words of his mental coach ringing in his ears to ensure the only damage done is to the United States\u2019 dreams of retaining the famous trophy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That is because for the last nine years, Rahm has partnered with Joseba Del Carmen as his mental coach.<\/p>\n
The star\u2019s fellow Spaniard can offer plenty of advice on dealing with stress after spending 14 years in the Basque police\u2019s bomb squad as an explosive device deactivator, witnessing people being killed and coming within one wrong move of his own death more than 100 times.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So when it comes to any crucial putts on the 18th green, Rahm is in very safe hands.<\/p>\n
