Let Johnny Miller's start to the 1975 season serve as a cautionary tale for Jon Rahm, who won the Genesis Invitational on Sunday. In doing so, Rahm became the first player to reach three PGA Tour wins before March 1 since Miller in 1975. That year, Miller didn't win again until mid-October. And his majors performances were hot and cold. He tied for second and third at the Masters and Briitsh Open, respectively, but also tied for 38th at the U.S. Open and missed the PGA Championship cut.
