“Through middle school and high school there a lot of temptations,” Spieth said. “A lot of parties…a lot of stuff going on that you guys are going to if not have already experienced.
“I had a lot of friends who kind of chose the wrong route. They’re still friends of mine to this day. It doesn’t change that at all.

“For me, for whatever reasons, it was the people I was around. It was my parents, it was people I chose to be my friends. I stayed clean. I stayed focused and I found success in what I was doing when I took that route. And it led to accomplishing goals year after year that led to long-term goals that I was able to accomplish this year in an incredible year for our team.
“It’s all about relationships, it’s all about who you’re around. Then, when you’re put in a different situation than you want to be in, can you sit there and say, ‘this is not going to do anything good for me, this is not going to allow me to accomplish me dreams?’ And I was able to do that. I stayed clean. I stayed focused.”
