Was it a taunt on the LIV defector?

Jordan Spieth states the facts

The reporter asked if there was any difference between chasing somebody who’s won a major championship and chasing someone who has not won one. Spieth said there is no difference as much as one could think. He talked about control and commented on Koepka, “He’s slept on these leads way more often than I had at the time,”

Spieth further added “You can control what you can control. Ideally, it would be somebody who would care more and potentially be feeling different than maybe Brooks will be.”

Although Koepka has never experienced the thrill of winning on a Saudi-backed circuit, Spieth still commended Koepka for his recent triumph in the LIV Golf League. Koepka’s impressive performance against a highly skilled field left a lasting impression on him. Spieth also admired Koepka’s skill and composure on the greens.

Returning to the central question of chasing, the professional golfer on the PGA Tour shared his thoughts, saying, “Yeah, ideally it would be if you were chasing, you don’t want to be chasing Tiger Woods, you want to be chasing somebody who’s never been there.” Despite this, it doesn’t really matter to him who he’s chasing.

Spieth has decided that he can control himself and the golf course while playing at the Masters Tournament. Therefore, he has decided not to do much scoreboard-watching. And if Koepka surpasses Spieth, it means that the PGA Tour pro should have played better the first two days. “but I’ll have a goal given the conditions, and it’ll try to be to shoot under par on the weekend,” said Spieth.

How are LIV Golfers doing at the Masters Tournament?

On Thursday, 17 LIV Golf League competitors teed off at Augusta National Golf Club for the 87th Masters, and the results were mixed. Brooks Koepka, a four-time major winner, put on an impressive display and shared the lead with a remarkable 7-under 65. Meanwhile, the current Open Champion, Cameron Smith, held his own with a solid 2 under par. Notably, former Masters champions Dustin Johnson, Phil Mickelson, and Reed also performed well, each finishing at 1 under par.

As the tournament progresses, it remains to be seen whether a seasoned LIV golfer can defy the odds and claim the coveted green jacket this year. However, all eyes will also be on Greg Norman, who is sure to have some strategic plans up his sleeve.
