This marks a significant contrast to Spieth’s performance on Thursday, where he had expressed confidence in his game. Spieth had previously led or co-led in 11 tournaments on the PGA Tour, resulting in 3 wins, 4 seconds, 1 third, a T-8, T-9, and his previous worst, a T-42. This was also the first time Spieth had ever missed a cut on the tour from a first-round position better than T-14. According to an article by Golf Channel, Jordan told the reporter, “Yeah, this sucks.”

In his post-round interview, Spieth acknowledged the disappointment of the outcome, stating, “I mean, I’ve never led a tournament and missed the cut before. … Just got just the ball in the wrong spots at the wrong places, and out here you just have to be fairway, fairway, fairway.” Talking about the turn of events, Spieth said, “Just a bad day.” He further said, “Didn’t feel like it was much different [than Thursday]. Felt like I had a really bad deck of cards today. Made a couple bad swings from off the tee. Other than that, I didn’t play that different. I just ended up a foot into the rough here, right behind a tree here.” As Spieth had to say, “It was a weird, weird day.” But the again, golf is a game of ups and downs and every player goes through difficult stretches.

While this may have been a tough loss for Spieth, it is important to remember that Spieth has shown time and time again that he is a fierce competitor and has the ability to come back from adversity. The golfing community will be watching and cheering for him as he looks to put this disappointment behind him and move forward to his next tournament.
