The golf and the world in which we live can be very prisoner of the moment.
To be clear, this is fine and normal. Since golf is a sport where people win, when a single has the entire approach, then we have a tendency to fully live in that idea.
We are at a point now, as a result of this phenomenon, where the Grand Slam race is at the forefront of our minds as never before. When Tiger Woods went up to the mountain in 2000, we didn’t have the Internet as we do now or on social networks or television coverage discussing the idea throughout the day. The times have changed and Rory Mcilroy joining the club a month ago has made us all extremely hyper-themes of the club’s CGs.
This sequence of events has shone the lights in the case of Jordan Spieth’s career trophies and, more specifically, than anything, the absence of a Wanamaker trophy in it. They only gave us by hand a CGS … Why can’t Jordan give us another? It just seems fair, golf!
While Mcilroy had been chasing the CGS since 2011, Jordan Ha only I have been doing it since 2017 when he won his open championship. From a point of view of the account that marks eight different PGA championships that has fallen short. Unfortunately … He has fallen mostly very short.
Jordan Spieth PGA Championship ends since CGS tried (event winner)
- 2017 …………… T28 (Justin Thomas)
- 2018 …………… T12 (Brooks Koepka)
- 2019 ……………. T3 (Brooks Koepka)
- 2020 …………… T71 (Collin Morikawa)
- 2021 ……………. T30 (Phil Mickelson)
- 2022 ……………. T34 (Justin Thomas)
- 2023 ……………. T29 (Brooks Koepka)
- 2024 …………….. T43 (Xander Schauffele)
It is that only being only that Tiger Woods (2019 Masters) and Phil Mickelson (2021 PGA championship) had won more recent specialties than Mcilroy and Spieth, but the old one turned in the PCESS itself and has made it known to that sense.
But isn’t it strange how we, as a golf world, we don’t talk about the search for Jordan CGS in the same way we did Rory? Perhaps some of that is that a green jacket is what eluded Rory and there is a certain aura that comes with what is not, due respect, with the PGA or any other specialty for the case. Annually thought, Rory has Dalt with that question in bold And capital letters where Jordan has a child or floated. Perhaps that is also representative of the fact that Rory has maintained the maximum form as a player and Jordan Haas no.
For your credit, Jordan seems aware of what we want to call this. Speaking on Tuesday in Quail Hollow, he said that exactly his own CGS has not approached since he had the opportunity to get there.
Jordan Spieth says in reference to the Grand Slam race: “There are a leg for several years that I have reached the PGA, and no one has really asked me about it.”
Not that he has offended it, he adds.

To relieve the fact that no one has really asked about it is perhaps the greatest amount of things here. Move again and look at the list of winners of the PGA championship since Jordan has had the opportunity to achieve immortality. Consider that Justin Thomas has won the event twice, including the last time it was in Quail Hollow. Remember that all the main Brooks Koepka championships (five of them, two more than Jordan) have happened in this period. Collin Morikawa and Xander Schauffele have won the event and added an open championship in time.
When Jordan Spieth lifted the Claret jug in 2017, a CGS felt inevitable by him. Maybe it is still.
At this moment he thought … He knows that people will assume it in a completely different way until that inevitability happens or not.
