ORLANDO, Fla. – Since opening his year with an eight-stroke romp at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions, Jordan Spieth has finished tied for 21st, missed a cut, tied for 17th and tied for 18th place on the PGA Tour.
For most players that’s not exact a sky-is-falling scenario, but last year’s historic run for Spieth has unrealistically heightened expectations and prompted some to question the world No. 1’s schedule the last few months.
Since wrapping up his season with a victory at the Tour Championship, Spieth has played 11 events in seven different countries including starts in Australia, South Korea, the United Arab Emirates and Singapore.
