It was one of those days, Rahm said. Really, really confident with my irons. Every time I stepped up, I felt like I was going to hit a good shot.Rahm was first in the field Saturday in strokes gained: tee to green. He had seven putts of 7 feet or less for eagle or birdie.His best iron shot of the day?Its hard to pick one from the day, he said.It might have been his 4-iron from 244 yards at the 11th. He hit it to 3 feet to set up eagle.Eleven was one of those shots that you visualize in your mind, and one of the few times in your life that it's going to come out exactly how you see it, he said.Or maybe it was the nervy pitching wedge he hit into the wind at the 17th. He put it less than 3 feet to set up birdie.I was hitting my irons very, very well, Rahm said.
