Jordan Spieth once again returned to the winner’s circle on the PGA Tour after a long drought. Spieth won the 2021 Valero Texas Open and opened his account for the year. The spotlight is shining bright on the 28-year-old as a new season has begun. But there’s a lot of confusion as to where Spieth will play next.
Jordan Spieth was fantastic at the Ryder Cup 2020 and contributed towards Team USA’s victory. He enjoyed the team format and then made his 2021-22 PGA Tour season debut at the CJ Cup at Summit.
Spieth dazzled the tournament with his style and was impeccable with his short game. However, he was unable to maintain consistency and dropped down the leaderboard owing to a sub-par third round. Spieth finished T18 after 72-holes at the CJ Cup.
