Joel Dahmen tied the low round of the day on Sunday with a 6-under 64 to finish T-5 at the 2022 RSM Classic.
The key to that strong finish?
“I don’t know, not being an idiot,” said Dahmen.
“I was an idiot (Saturday). I wasn’t patient on the first hole and I hit it over the green and made bogey,” he continued while noting he’s “far too often” an idiot on the course. “And then after that I was just like there’s like no more stupid mistakes today, don’t be super aggressive at some pins, there’s birdies out here, there’s plenty of them. So just kind of hung in there and played great on the back.”
Known for possessing one of the best personalities on the PGA Tour, Dahmen was just getting started. Netflix wasn’t working on his trip back home, so the 35-year-old took to Twitter for a little Q&A fun to pass the time. Dahmen didn’t disappoint.
The winner of the 2021 Corales Puntacana Resort and Club Championship gave a handful of serious answers as he explained the difference between tour pros and average joes, his travel schedule and his love of his alma mater, the Washington Huskies.
Here are some highlights:
Member guest White Claw consumption
Love this. So start with a holstered cocktail. 3-4 a side for a white claw. Keep two warmish in case you need to shotgun after a bad hole.

Good friend Max Homa’s dad strength
He was before. Scared what he might do with the new found strength. I can assure you he won’t be getting a dad bob anytime soon.
