By shooting a one-under-par 69 on day two at TPC Southwind to get into T-5 at six-under heading into the weekend, Spieth somewhat controls his own destiny to continue in the FedEx Cup Playoffs.
Adam Scott made a hot start to the PGA Tour’s FedExCup playoffs, firing a four-under 66 to sit tied for fifth at the FedEx St Jude Championship, one shot off the pace set by a group of Americans on five-under 65. Min Woo Lee, the only other Aussie in the field, is well placed in a share of 13th after a three-under 67.
Some finishes fade with time. This one hasn’t. Nine years after Jordan Spieth’s extraordinary final round at Royal Birkdale, we look back at the bizarre, brilliant 13th hole sequence that could have ended his 2017 Open dream and instead ignited the most electric run of his career. From a horror drive into the dunes to a 22-minute rules odyssey and a heroic bogey, it remains one of the strangest and most captivating stretches in major championship history.
Royal Birkdale is unrecognisable in parts ahead of this year’s Open Championship. Architect Tom Mackenzie has reworked almost every hole on the Southport links including a new driveable fifth a retired par-3 14th and a brand new long par 3 to replace it. Here’s a look at the biggest changes since Jordan Spieth’s win in 2017.
