We can all imagine that Jordan Spieth, being the really nice young man he is, has a hard time saying “no.”
A fact of life in the world of golf equipment is that manufacturers are always “encouraging” their staff players to put the new stuff in their bags.
That may have been the case with Jordan Spieth, who revealed at his press conference prior to the Deutsche Bank championship that he put a new set of irons in his bag for the Barclays.
Spieth had his poorest 36-hole showing of the year and missed the cut badly.
“I figured it would be no problem,” said Spieth, who put Titleist’s 716 AP-2 prototypes in play last week. “And then I felt they were slicing through the turf a little different,” Spieth admitted.
Common sense has taken over and Spieth says he’s gone back to the clubs that won him the Masters, the U.S. Open and put him darn close at the British and PGA.
Well done Jordan.
