Spieth has had one great season. He's no Jack or Tiger yet.
LIPO -
I completely know what the point is ...
Spieth had a helluva year in the Majors winning 2. Nobody has ever won more than 3 professional majors in the same year.
You could argue that he missed out on winning the Grand Slam by 4 shots (would have had to win playoffs).
He's had a great year ... which he himself has said.
Clearly you don't understand how difficult it is to win majors ... and clearly don't understand how much talent there is in the game at the moment. Tiger's won 2 majors in a year 3x and 3 in a year once. Jack won 2 in a year 4x. Spieth is all of 22 years old ... if 20 years from now we look at him and he's struggling to find 2 majors in a year repeatedly, then pop off. But as for now, he's accomplishing things that only the true greats of the game accomplish. -
Like Mark O'Meara and Padraig Harrington?Tequilla said:But as for now, he's accomplishing things that only the true greats of the game accomplish.
Yeah, Spieth should wind up better than those two guys, but Tiger should have 20+ majors by now too. -
The number of players that have even won 3 major championships in history is very low.
And to be fair to O'Meara, he is a world golf HOFer ... it's not like he's a complete chump. -

Hey Fleenor, I must have missed your post where you chose Jason Day.Tequilla said:Spieth played a strong final round today ... He needed to shoot 65 today to get into a playoff ... Which is far from a given on a major Sunday.
Very happy to see Jason Day win ... Very talented player that has been all over the top of major leaderboards and often has been one shot short.
Everybody sucks off Durwood Johnson's 8 ball and Bubba Gump's pink driver, but as usual the masses back the wrong horse ... Day is the talented long hitter in the game. -
I actually called it out either before the tournament or mid-day Thursday to a buddy that Day would win with Spieth second ... not the biggest out on a limp prediction.RoadDawg55 said:
