PGA Tour superstar Jordan Spieth is usually one of the favorites to win the Masters every year due to his aggressive style of play and his ability to drive the ball great distances. But it does not look like he will be winning a Green Jacket this year after he had an absolute meltdown during his round on Friday morning.
On Friday morning, Jordan Spieth finished with a quadruple bogey on the par-5 15th hole, posting a score of nine on the hole after an absolute meltdown.
The problems on the hole began when Spieth sent his third shot into the water. Then, his fifth shot sailed over the green and he needed three putts to finish the hole.
It was an absolute disaster for Spieth that brought him to the bottom of the leaderboard and needing a very strong performance the rest of the way to even make the cut, and people had a lot to say about it on social media as a result.
Watching Jordan Spieth is to feel alive and always be cognizant of the fact that we're all going to die. https://t.co/6Rqcld0ONI

Nothing like waking up early to finish round 1 and making a quad https://t.co/AV1ErVoszt

Obviously, this is pretty bad news for Spieth that likely rules out any possibility of him competing for the title this weekend, but it will be interesting to see whether or not he can bounce back.
