Jordan Spieth

Spieth arrived with some question marks with his health as he's struggled in recent weeks while overcoming a wrist injury. We can dismiss the injury concerns after his tee-to-green clinic at Muirfield Village this week. He pelted 41 fairways (2nd) en route to 41 GIR (T19). He gained 10.3 strokes tee-to-green at week's end which ranked fourth in the field. This was Spieth's eighth career top 20 at Jack's place. He will have a week to rest before taking on LACC for the U.S. Open.

Spieth battled wrist injuries in recent weeks and talked about the lack of practice reps holding him back. Providing an update after the round, he's sounding more optimistic about the wrist. "It's fine. I wouldn't, I don't notice it. It's random little things like pushing a door wrong or getting jammed. It's not a bother out on the golf course at all. I just tape it up to make sure that it doesn't get any worse." Spieth's short game returned to form today as he gained 2.8 strokes around-the-green (2nd) and 1.3 strokes putting (25th). The Texan had arrived with seven top 20s in 10 tries at the Memorial and he's right on pace for another one with three days remaining. 

Spieth was a question mark this week due to a wrist injury that he's been battling. He talked about giving away a few shots this week due to the way he felt about his wrist, but overall optimistic about the injury. " It's kind of a week-to-week thing because if it feels any worse, I need to lay off of it, but just do the right recovery over the next couple of days. If anything, it should improve even more." As of now, Spieth is committed to play three of the next four weeks (Charles Schwab Challenge, Memorial Tournament, U.S. Open). "I feel good. I feel like I'm going to just trend back upwards in that direction that I was a month ago." 

Spieth entered the week with some question marks as an injured wrist forced him to withdraw ahead of his home event in Dallas. After some rest and treatment, he feels confident that he's ready for action this week, "Since last Wednesday afternoon I feel like I can get into every position with the speed that I want and produce the scores that I want. Iâ??m just a little rusty on the reps." Spieth missed the cut in his previous attempt at Oak Hill (2013) but that was his PGA Championship debut. He's added four top 15s in nine tries since then but it remains the final piece of his career-grand-slam puzzle.
