If Jordan Spieth wants to carry a two-tournament winning streak into the U.S. Open, he's going to have his work cut out for him the rest of the weekend.
Spieth carded a two-under 70 in Thursday's first round at the 2016 Memorial Tournament, putting him six back of leader Dustin Johnson. The world No. 2 is tied for 32nd place overall with a number of players still remaining on the course.
Playing partner Rory McIlroy sits one stroke behind Spieth in a tie for 54th. Both golfers played inconsistent rounds, with McIlroy interspersing the occasional befuddling hole with an otherwise solid round and Spieth struggling all day off the tee.
