Jordan Spieth came into The Players Championship hoping to turn his 2019 season around.
He'll leave needing to play well Friday to avoid being cut.
Spieth carded a four-over 76 in Thursday's first round, putting him in a tie for 130th and 11 strokes off the pace set by leaders Tommy Fleetwood and Keegan Bradley.
The round was a microcosm of Spieth's season, featuring horrid drives, misses on easy putts and a languishing look of frustration from a guy trying to figure things out. Spieth has not finished any higher than 35th in a PGA Tour event this season and has not won on tour since the 2017 Open Championship.
