Spieth misses Tour Champ., doesn't meet starts policy

NEWTOWN SQUARE, Pa. – Jordan Spieth is going to miss the Tour Championship for the first time in his career.

The 2015 FedExCup champion closed out his season with a final-round 73, leaving him in a tie for 54th at the BMW Championship.

Spieth entered the week 27th on the postseason points standings but slipped to 31st, with only the top 30 advancing to East Lake.

“I was in control of my own destiny and didn't have it this week. Riding some momentum, but all in all, game kind of got a little off,” he said Monday.
