Golf-Spieth aims to keep low profile as Champions Dinner host (Reuters)

By Mark Lamport-Stokes

AUGUSTA, Georgia, April 5 (Reuters) - Last year's Masters winner Jordan Spieth will be the youngest player in the room when he hosts the Champions Dinner at Augusta National on Tuesday and plans to keep his own talking to a bare minimum.

The 22-year-old American will be serving up a Texas-style barbecue to honour his home state, and was licking his lips in anticipation of all the anecdotes to be told by his much older predecessors at the traditional Masters get-together.

"It will be certainly unique," Spieth told reporters on Tuesday.
