The 2022 Hero World Challenge has begun at the Albany Golf Course in the Bahamas. Although Tiger Woods is not taking part in the competition, he is the center of attraction of the event as he is the host. However, another person has recently taken over the show-stealer spot from the G.O.A.T., and it is none other than the toddler of Jordan Spieth and his wife, Annie.

Born on November 11th last year, Spieth and his wife celebrated their son, Sammy Spieth’s first-ever birthday. And in no time, he will take his first tee shot at the PNC Championship, the PGA Tour Champion’s father-son event, with the 3-time major champion.
Is Jordan Spieth playing in the upcoming PNC Championship?
PNC Championship is the unofficial Tour event. And golfers with either a major title or a Players Championship title can be qualified to play with one of their family members to make a pair in the competition.
Jordan Spieth won his first major in 2015 at the Masters Tournament. Moreover, he has won two more majors in his career. Hence, he has been qualified to play in the PNC Championship for a long time. However, he hasn’t participated once until now.
