Jordan Spieth Returning to Royal Birkdale in Search of his Old Self
After failing to finish inside the top 50 in any of his last four starts, hopes for Jordan Spieth aren't high coming into the year's final major. There isn't a single part of his game performing with any consistency, especially his chipping and putting, both of which are averaging negative strokes gained over his last three starts. The 32-year-old is returning to Royal Birkdale, where he won his Claret Jug in 2017. However, this is a very different player now than when he won back then. The ball striking isn't as crisp, the short game isn't as tight, and the putts aren't falling. Unlike the level he was at nine years ago, there are better options this week.
