PGA Tour superstar Jordan Spieth sinks to remarkable career low
PGA Tour golfer Jordan Spieth has fallen outside of the top 50 in the OWGR for the first time in more than three-and-a-half years.
PGA Tour star Jordan Spieth has fallen outside of the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking for the first time since March 2021.
The news was confirmed by OWGR guru Nosferatu on X.
Spieth was previously ranked the best player in the world for 26 weeks across different periods in 2015 and 2016.
He won The Masters in 2015, defeating Phil Mickelson and Justin Rose by four strokes at Augusta National and vaulted to the top position when he finished second to Jason Day at the PGA Championship.
In recent years Spieth has struggled with form and injury.
He went a mystifying 82 events without winning, but broke that slump at the 2021 Valero Texas Open.
“There’s peaks and valleys in this sport, but I never expected to go this long,” Spieth previously said.
The 2023-2024 PGA Tour season was another challenging one for Spieth.
Primarily, that has been due to a recurring wrist injury that led to season-ending surgery.
One could argue that his role on the PGA Tour’s policy board could have also affected his performance.
Spieth, along with Tiger Woods, Patrick Cantlay, Peter Malnati, Webb Simpson and Adam Scott have been involved in the discussions with LIV Golf’s Saudi backers, the PIF, to agree a peace deal.
His wrist injury initially flared up in early 2023 but he has persevered.
The American said the pain didn’t affect his swing directly but it had a noticeable impact on his results.
In the majors this year, Spieth’s best finish came at The Open in July when he finished in a tie for 25th.
He missed the cut at The Masters and wasn’t a factor at the PGA Championship or U.S. Open.
