Jon Rahm may not have added another major title to his impressive résumé this year, but he still has plenty to celebrate both on and off the golf course. At 29 years old, Rahm remains one of the top golfers in the world and a fan favorite, even though he’s no longer competing on the PGA Tour. With major wins at the U.S. Open in 2021 and the Masters in 2023, his legacy is already cemented.
And just last month, Rahm proved he’s still a force to be reckoned with by securing first place in LIV Golf Chicago, showing his ability to dominate in major tournaments is far from over.
However, it’s in his personal life where Rahm has even more reasons to smile. Last week, Rahm and his wife, Kelley, welcomed their third child, a baby girl named Alaia Cahill Rahm. The two-time major champion shared the joyful news with the world on Tuesday, posting a heartwarming photo of himself cradling his newborn daughter on Instagram.
“So blessed to have welcomed our daughter Alaia Cahill Rahm into the world last week,” Rahm wrote. “Mama and baby girl are both healthy and doing great, I can’t wait to get back home to them.”

Rahm’s announcement was met with an outpouring of love and support from fans and fellow golfers alike. Many congratulated him on the milestone of becoming a “girl dad,” joining the ranks of athletes who cherish fatherhood as much as their professional achievements. Rahm’s peers on the tour also reached out with well-wishes, celebrating the new addition to his growing family.
Rahm and Kelley already have two sons, Kepa and Eneko, who are now big brothers to baby Alaia. The close-knit family, often seen together during Rahm’s tournaments, will surely cherish these special moments as they adjust to life as a family of five.
Rahm, known for his strong family values, has always emphasized the importance of balancing his career with quality time at home, and his latest Instagram post underscores his excitement to embrace fatherhood once again.
With the golf season winding down, Rahm will have plenty of time this winter to enjoy life with his children and wife. The off-season offers a perfect opportunity for Rahm to spend more time at home, relishing in the joys of parenthood and creating memories with his growing family.
Fans of the golfing world, as well as Rahm’s supporters across the globe, are sending their best wishes to the Rahm family during this exciting new chapter. While Rahm’s future on the golf course remains as promising as ever, it’s clear that his most treasured victories lie with his family.
Here’s to the continued success of one of golf’s most beloved players, both on the greens and at home.
