Winner: Jordan Spieth
Around the wider world of golf: While Amy Yang and Stacy Lewis battled each other, 20-year-old In Gee Chun roared through the field to take her first US Women's Open on the LPGA; Rickie Fowler made another late-round charge to win the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open on the ET; Martin Pillar set a new tournament record en route to his win at the Web.com Tour's Albertsons Boise Open; Jerry Smith got his first win at the Champions Tour's Encompass Championship; and C.T. Pan won The Players Cup on the MACKENZIE TOUR - PGA TOUR Canada.
Well, he did it once more.
Not only did Jordan Spieth win another tournament -- 2 in a row now -- but he is received 2 John Deere Classics in playoffs. And he did it with four birdies inside the closing 6 holes -- any other ultimate-minute fee when he gave the look to be out of the match.
And oh yes, he broke Zach Johnson's coronary heart once more. He just did not do it in the playoff this time. But Zach gets his rematch on the Open next week.
Danny Lee got here up just short of making the playoff, however he is also on his manner to the Open.
And long-time Tour seasoned Tom Gillis were given beat in that playoff, but he additionally got an Open berth out of the deal. So I bet, whilst you don't forget the whole thing, it would not count number so much that Jordan just tore up the sphere again after being T101 after round 1.
Of route, I doubt any of them see it that way. And I really doubt that Rory McIlroy will percentage that view, as a win through Jordan at the Open will possibly vault the wunderkid to #1 within the world. And if there are any doubters left who consider Jordan made a mistake by using preparing for the Open on the John Deere... Nicely, I do not think all of us cares what they think now
And Jordan? He just chalks up PGA Tour win #4 of 2015, international win #6 of the wraparound season, and heads off to St. Andrews in which he will possibly approach this important like every other tournament that he expects to win.
Plus, if it matters in any respect in the midst of his top notch run of true play, he also grabs his 4th Limerick Summary of the yr. Funny how that works out:
