WATCH: Jordan Spieth misses a SIX INCH putt
Every golfer has done something stupid while frustrated that they immediately regretted. Whether it’s breaking a club, attempting a reckless recovery shot, or in Jordan Spieth’s case, mis-hitting a six inch tap-in.
On Friday at the 2018 Northern Trust at Ridgewood Country Club, Spieth left his bogey putt short after making a mess of the 18th hole. He then stubbed his one-handed double-bogey attempt from 6 inches, hitting it only halfway. Spieth smartly put two hands on the club with his normal cross-handed grip and completed the hole for a triple-bogey 7.
Check out the footage here, captured by Golf Digest’s Joel Beall.

Whoops!
Spieth’s putting woes continue to haunt his 2018 season; he currently sits at 140th in Strokes Gained: Putting on the year, according to pgatour.com. A far cry from being widely considered one of the best putters in the game throughout his career.
Despite the shocking miscue, Spieth shot a 1-under 70 on the day and sits at 2-under for the event. The cut was at even par.

Photos from the 2024 PGA Championship
GolfWRX is on site this week at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, for the PGA Championship.
While we see fewer equipment changes and new gear seeding at major championships, we get a look at custom gear and looks into the bags of players we rarely see, which is just as exciting. In the case of the PGA Championship, this means a look at the gear some of the PGA Professionals who qualified for the tournament will be gaming, and LIV players, such as Jon Rahm and Patrick Reed.
Check out links to all our albums from Valhalla below and check back throughout the week as we continue to update.

How did he “accidentally” move it? He took a swipe, and didn’t get it to the hole.

He went from a 20-year old phenom to a 55-year old with the yips in the space of 2 years. Isn’t golf great?

Lighten up FTLOG. Start by not parting your hair repeatedly after taking your hat off.

He hits too many wild errant shots this year. He drove it OB on the hole this debacle took place. Two many double and triple bogies or worse. Hope he figures it out, he seems agitated out there. Great young man, great for golf!
