Jordan Spieth who’s arguably one of the greatest players of all time and the player with presumably the best technique on tour. Jordan  Spieth is an American golfer who is a three-time major championship winner and also won the 2015 FedEx Cup. He is also the 2013 Rookie of the year winner.

Jordan, before his 2022 appearance spoke about rival Saudi Arabia-backed League.

Jordan Spieth says the threat is good

As the new year enters, players are battling it out in Hawai for the 2022 Sentry Tournament of Champions. Players are playing for total prize money of $8.2 million, but that’s not the only thing in the headlines. The Saudi-backed league has controversies surrounding it. Jordan Spieth, in a recent interview, said that the Saudia-backed league is a “threat,” but the threat proved to be good.

He added,” I think as a player, overall, it will benefit in that I think that the changes that have come from the PGA Tour have been modernized in a way that may or may not have come about if [the reports on the Saudi League] weren’t there, So, I think for us players on the PGA Tour, I think that so far it’s been something that has kind of helped the PGA Tour sit and say, hey, where can we look to satisfy our membership.”
