Jordan Spieth has revealed that he dislocated his wrist a staggering 12 times in just the five months leading up to the British Open. But the resilient American refuses to be defeated and says each good day feels like a return to his prime.
Once golf’s golden age boy, Spieth’s rise has been meteoric. In 2015, he arrived in St Andrews for the open at the dawn of an unprecedented Grand Chelem in a single year and was ready to claim place n ° 1 in the world.
His victory in Birkdale two years later with the jug in hand seemed to announce an era of Spieth’s supremacy. But since then, the major victory has escaped him.
It is currently ranked 34th in the world, and it is difficult to guess that there are 33 excellent players, but the recent records of Spieeth talk about the volume. However, what fans didn’t see were the fights behind the scenes.
