Not the case for Spieth -- he's still searching for his game today. Jordan just birdied #13, but hit a poor approach right again on #14. Was vocally angry with another poor iron shot that flaired right...

May 22, 20223 yr 5 minutes ago, ClubWhatever said: Spieth is still fucked in the head. -1 thru 17 holes, and gave up at least 3-4 strokes due to mental mistakes. Crazy how good today's round could have been if Spieth was just a little sharper especially putting... Edited May 22, 20223 yr by LTtxfan damn autocorrect

May 22, 20223 yr I think JT might shoot a 65 or lower today. This course is set up for a lower final round score today. Would be awesome to see a 63
May 22, 20223 yr Rory doing typical Rory things this weekend. texted a buddy a few minutes ago: So glad I’m not a fan of his Would be infuriating then remembered Spieth is maybe my favorite golfer…
May 22, 20223 yr Spieth exudes a victim mentality a lot of the time. He’s often griping about a sudden wind gust, a bad bounce, a deceptive read, etc. I don’t know where this came from but it’s not fun to watch and it’s not going to win him many tournaments. It’s like he’s expecting bad shots and when they happen is ready to pin them on something. Just shut up and own your game. If you’re not making putts, you have to just keep grinding. I know this from my zero years experience as a pro and coach. But it’s what I would tell him if I was his coach.

May 22, 20223 yr Birdie on #5 Zalatoris, now tied for lead -8 Zalatoris then misses right badly on hole #6 -- may be OB or unplayable ?? Gonna be interesting ruling...
May 22, 20223 yr Let me hit from the middle of the cart path, take a stroke, make some sparks and move on.

May 22, 20223 yr Mito would be the most random major winner in a long time. Trying to think of other recent ones. Feel like you have to go back to like Darren Clarke at the open. (I mean I guess Phil last year was pretty crazy but it's Phil). Pereira is 100th in the world with 0 tour wins. And he had never made the cut at a major before this...

As soon as you start believing your swing is the problem, especially mid round of a major, you're uber fucked. Middle of a round is not the time to lose faith in your process. Jordan has commented on a few occasions what he admires about Tiger is he always stays positive about his process during a round. Ya, he hits bad shots and reacts but he never berates himself or loses belief in his process. I think Jordan tries hard to emulate that.

Masters has had some head scratchers, too.

Maybe Willett.

Probably not as recent as you had in mind, but Shaun Micheel winning the 2003 PGA came out of nowhere. I looked it up and he was ranked 169th in the world and that victory would be the only PGA tour victory of his career.

Willet and Walker are definitely weird, though Lyme disease really fucked Walker's career.

Willett had one top 10 at a British and 4 Euro wins (and that's still his only win on your). A little closer to this.

If you had told Phil "you are starting the final round one shot back and will shoot 65", he'd have bet $50M on himself to win. He ended up 3 back of Stenson and 11 ahead of 3rd place. Unbelievable how they both had lapped the field.

May 22, 20223 yr Cameron Young winning would be out of nowhere too. Zalatoris doesn’t have any wins but at least he’s got several good finishes in prior majors.
May 22, 20223 yr All of the top 3 have had their shaky moments. Someone get in and post -5 and see what happens.
