NASSAU, Bahamas -- As Jordan Spieth said, Sydney to Nassau is not exactly the worst way to live life. Last week it was the Australian Open, this week the Hero World Challenge, where a dream year is set to come to an end.
Spieth, 22, is set to defend his title at Albany Golf Club, a new venue for the event, after winning five times on the PGA Tour in 2015, including the Masters and U.S. Open.
And yet, hard as it may be to believe, coming into this tournament a year ago, Spieth had just two professional wins, only one on the PGA Tour.
