The 28-year-old shot 13-under but it still took a playoff with Patrick Cantlay and a long missed put for Spieth to take it home.

“Spieth is the only player who can: 1. Be 50 feet away for birdie and you’re 100% convinced he’s gonna drain it 2. Be 4 feet away for par and you’re 100% sure he’s making bogey,” the podcast followed up.

“Just when you thought he’d reached a low point after the Masters, Spieth beats a stacked field and should’ve won by multiple shots,” said Golf Digest’s Dan Rapaport. “This is why you simply can’t quit him. The rollercoaster continues.”
