Jordan Spieth puts PGA Tour rivals on notice with promising 2025 update

Jordan Spieth’s 2024 campaign was an underwhelming one by his usually high standards, with an injury problem with his wirst causing issues throughout the season

Jordan Spieth has warned his rivals on the PGA Tour that he will be recovered from a wrist problem and ready and raring to go at the beginning of 2025.

Spieth failed to find his best golf in 2025, with his year eventually cut short at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, ending the season 67th in the FedEx Cup standings. One of the key issues surrounding his lack of form though, has been his fitness, having struggled with a wrist problem.

And it was clearly a serious one, as Spieth told reporters at TPC Southwind in Memphis: I’ve got to have it operated on ASAP, and then I’ll go through the process of what I’m supposed to do from there.”

Almost a month on though, Spieth appears positive about his issue after consulting with a surgeon. “Anytime a guy who does, you know, 30,000 to 40,000 surgeries is excited about something, you know, that’s reason for me to feel good about it, I guess,” he told CBS. “In due time, it should be better than it was before.”

Spieth himself would be the first to admit that he has failed to find the form in recent years that made him one of the top players on the planet in the mid-to-late 2010s. The issue of his wrist appeared to have been a problem since it flared up at the 2022 PGA Championship at Southern Hills.

The 31-year-old Texan however has admitted he has struggled with the issue since way back in 2017, the year of his last major triumph at The Open Championship. Opening up on his ongoing problems both on and off the golf course with his wrist, he added: “I didn’t get it fixed maybe then, and I kind of got into some bad habits.
