Jordan Spieth is probably one of the best players present on the PGA Tour. The golfer has made millions of fans with his epic tournament performances and unfathomable victories. However, he couldn’t make it to the win at the RBC Heritage at Harbour Town. The two finished on 17 under with Fitzpatrick carding a three-under 68. On the other hand, Spieth shot a 66 but missed putts on the first two playoff holes. Taking advantage of the situation, the English pro birdied the third hole and claimed the title.
