Jordan Spieth frustrated that he let Tiger Woods get to him
The defending champion had not intended to keep tabs on the man who has won the Claret Jug on three occasions and has made no secret of the fact he felt ready to take that tally to four, but a chance glance soon informed him of the very real threat being posed by his fellow American.
“Yeah, I saw it on maybe No 7 or 8 green, and it was an accident. I looked up and I saw Tiger at No 1, and he was leading solo, and I went to Michael [Greller, his caddie]: “Dammit, I looked at the board, dude.” I was frustrated at myself. He’s like: ‘He hasn’t been in this position in ten years, and you’ve been here how many times in the last three years’. I was like: ‘I feel fine. It’s okay. This is what you dream about anyway’.”
