ATLANTA – It’s just looked like he’s played the game like a 32-year-old veteran the last few months, but Jordan Spieth is still a 22-year-old finding his way in the professional realm, albeit with bookend majors to show him the way.
Take Friday at the Tour Championship as a testament to Spieth’s ongoing education.
After playing his first four soggy holes in even par, Spieth’s drive sailed right of the fairway at the fifth and dangerously close to Second Avenue and the same out of bounds markers that led to Jason Day’s triple bogey-7 on Day 1.
