Jordan Spieth is one of the golfers who absolutely adores his fans. He shares a special emotional bond with them. There have been many instances in the past when the golfer has displayed the kind of emotion he shares with his fans. This is highlighted by the time when the golf pro referred to a fan as “scum” for trying to sell his autographed memorabilia.

While trying to mooch off Spieth, the fan was, nonetheless, unceremonious, “You’re not Tiger Woods, don’t act like you’re Tiger.” Six years later, yet another incident has come to light, but on a positive note. Spieth went over and beyond his way to grant one of his fan’s wishes. Competing at the Memorial Tournament, when the 3-time major winner headed over to interact with the fans, one young enthusiast was looking forward to making memories of a lifetime, but not with the golfer’s autograph, but with a little game.

Just like he almost always does after rounds, this time too, the 13-time PGA Tour winner headed over to the fans to sign mementos and make memories. Perhaps his T-14 finish at par was not his most memorable day on the Tour, but the lively interaction that followed the round certainly was!

More often than not, when fans get a chance to get their favorite athlete’s autograph, they take it. However, Saturday was a different story altogether! As Spieth was signing his fans’ purses and caps, one fan wanted none of that. He stopped Spieth amid his autograph spree, and instead posed him with an unusual request!

The young fan wanted to play a game with the three-time major winner. And not of golf, but rock, paper, scissors! Spieth, of course, could not refuse the little golf enthusiast’s adorable request and went ahead and entertained him. Seconds later, though, he may have regretted that choice, for the youngster beat him in the second round after tying the first, as all the fans around them watched on eagerly!

Spieth, who is beloved by them quite often, goes out of his way to please them. And the game of rock, paper, scissors wasn’t the only instance. In fact, earlier this year, the 2015 FedEx Champion shared a heartwarming moment with another young fan at the Wells Fargo Championship, entertaining his adorable request! And yet another adorable moment came last year when he pleased yet another fan, with his baby in his hand!

At the 2022 AT&T Byron Nelson, just like always, Speith headed to the clubhouse after the round. But this was no ordinary day, for the golfer has with him his own fan from home, his son, Sammy Spieth. Back then, it was one of the baby’s first times at the course among fans! And along with young Sammy, the golf pro gave one fan a great memory.

On his way to the clubhouse, the golf pro was approached by a fan, and while many may have brushed them off considering they had their newborn in their hands, that just wasn’t Spieth. Holding his baby in one arm, he took the youngster’s hat and signed it with the other, giving him an unforgettable memory: the day the 3-time major winner signed his memento with his baby in his arms.
