GENESIS SCOTTISH OPEN


July 9, 2022


Jordan Spieth


North Berwick, Scotland

The Renaissance Club

Quick Quotes


Q. 4-under par 66, how was that?

JORDAN SPIETH: Yeah, great. The last two rounds I just wanted to maintain the energy, 17, 18, being difficult holes but nice to get that bonus there on 15.

Q. Talk us through --

JORDAN SPIETH: Yeah, I had 110 yards but straight downwind so took the 60-degree out and tried to play a float cutter in there about a 90-yard shot and get a hop. It looked good from the air and lucky to go in I was pleased with the pace I had on it knowing I had my number.

Q. Do you ever think sometimes you hit an inordinate amount of crazy shots on the golf course?

JORDAN SPIETH: I'm not sure. I mean, I think that given how early in my career went, most of my shots have been recorded. Not to say a lot of professionals out here have not hit plenty of shots you may not been able to have on video.

Yeah, I try to believe that I have a knack for just getting it in the hole however I can and some days that means ball-striking and some days that means scrambling. I think the ability to try to find a way to shoot lower scores and willing it in has some effect. Had my fair share of breaks over the years. The ones that go in with the right speed are the ones that I walk away even happier with.

I think the creativity, and not just on and around the greens. There are shots here that we would not even think about playing in the States, and what I mean by that is how low you flight some shots, how much club you're hitting, how little club you're hitting from certain yardages is pretty uncomfortable knowing pins are on corners of greens, and sometimes it's just a little bit hard to believe. Sometimes it's nice to get over here on links turf and play some shots in the wind, and ahead of the Hope next week.

Q. Just before we let you go, you yesterday once again reaffirmed your position with the PGA TOUR and denying obviously the fact that you are in conversation with LIV. Do you feel a need you can do that so you can focus on doing what your real job is?

JORDAN SPIETH: No, I think I was just made aware after the round of some false reports, and so at that point, I think that maybe I had not been vocal enough. So maybe just set the record straight. It kind of stinks that anyone has to necessarily do it but it's not really a big deal. I didn't think it was really that big of a deal. Certainly love competing and contending in these PGA TOUR events, and another one of those rounds tomorrow may get it done.
