I expected the same for Spieth but it certainly appears I may have underestimated him. He plays such a clinical game, nothing really flashy. His strength is lack of weaknesses, which makes him easy to underestimate I suppose.
I'm basically the same as you - being proven wrong.
Although is what JS has done/doing more impressive than rory (before Nike, famous GF, agent split etc)?... I guess if rory had closed on that masters where he blew up, it might be different
I heard announcers say JS at one point (last year???) was 33% from 20-25 feet
One thing that does intrigue me is Spieth and rory seem like naturally strong guys. Not sure about day... I have pet theory that tall, skinny, whippy swings break down under pressure
