For a while, Rai played with iron covers on his clubs to remind himself of his humble roots.

31 on the Back 9 doesn't suck.  Especially with everyone else spraying the ball all over the place.

Golf bros and golf influencers will hate this result, so, good on yeah, Aaron.

And he's not American, so that's a plus

I like elite performances.  He earned that victory by being by far the best player on the course when it mattered.  Props to the young man.

Plus, it's always good when Euros win these on American soil in front of the morons who chant, "USA, USA".

Depends on the Euro.  But there's no place for those particular fans chanting USA, USA.

The iron covers are a nice story, endearing throwback.  But the double glove is the dorkiest thing ever that can't be spun to anything but.

But full credit to Rai, he was lights out all weekend.  Though I think he's likely Danny Willet 2.0 as it pertains to subsequent PGA success.

The two gloves are definitely idiosyncratic.   There was another journeyman pro who did that.  Tommy Gainey.   

I wear rain gloves when I play in the rain.  Amazing how your grip gets better as the clubs get wetter.   I have thought about it on super humid days but I just bring along an extra towel instead.

He also has unusual ball position with his driver.   But, hey, congratulations.  A good guy journeyman got hot at the right time.  He seized the moment and the tournament.
