In case you missed it, Jordan Spieth produced one of the most incredible winning shots that you will ever see in a golf tournament at the 2017 Travelers Championship in Connecticut. The TPC River Highlands golf course witnessed history- something we have come to expect from Jordan Spieth- as he chipped in from the bunker on the 19th in a shot that can only be compared to... well, Jordan Spieth. A score of 12-under took the young American into a playoff with Daniel Berger, where he would scalp a wire-to-wire victory in the most astonishing fashion. Conjuring up memories of his famous bunker shot that forced a playoff in the 2013 John Deere Classic, Spieth outclassed his fellow American in this year's Travelers Championship playoff. His masterful shot at the John Deere Classic propelled him to the world stage as he went on to become the first teenager in over 80 years to win a PGA Tour event. Spieth became only the second golfer ever to claim 10 PGA Tour victories before the age of 24 with this win; drawing comparisons to the great Tiger Woods, who achieved this feat only four months younger than Spieth (currently 23 years and 10 months), that we had previously believed unthinkable.
If you thought that this would be a fairly routine golf tournament, you were seriously mistaken (there will be a lot of 'seriously mistaken' golf fans following Sunday's finale). A strong field featured the likes of Americans Daniel Berger and Charley Hoffman, who finished 2 and T3 respectively, high-flying Englishman Paul Casey and TaylorMade's new superstar, Rory McIlroy. Despite the impressive finishes of the aforementioned Americans, it was Rory McIlroy that made headlines as usual. The Rory McIlroy-TaylorMade putters saga continued as the Northern Irishman made a mid-tournament putter change, sacrificing his TaylorMade Spider Tour putter for TaylorMade TP Mullen putter. The change appeared to work as his putting improved, although it wasn't enough to haul himself any higher than T17 on the leaderboard.
With The Open Championship less than a month away, this victory gives Jordan Spieth a huge confidence boost to help improve his form in 2017 majors. Oh, and a cool $1.2 million in his pocket.
