ERIN, Wis. (AP) Jordan Spieth’s first attempt to get out of the bunker on the 18th hole Saturday ended badly. The ball slid back down the sandy slope until it came to a rest near his footprints.
It was a fitting end to a frustrating day for Spieth at the U.S. Open.
”It’s been an off-putting week for me,” Spieth said. ”Searching for it, but just haven’t quite finished out a major with the speed.”
Spieth shot a 4-under 76 in a third round that ended with a double bogey on the par-5 18th . Spieth was at 4 over for the tournament – 16 shots behind leader Brian Harman.
