Jordan Spieth, a three-time major winner, made headlines at the RBC Heritage by achieving a rare feat on the PGA Tour that hasn't been done in 20 years. He became the only player in two decades to finish under par while recording over four double bogeys and no bogeys through the first 36 holes. Despite ranking T53 and being 14 strokes off the lead, Spieth's performance showcased his potential for improvement. He started his tournament with a double bogey on the eighth hole but managed to recover with four birdies to finish two-under on Thursday. On Friday, he faced challenges with three double bogeys but still recorded five birdies, finishing with a one-over 72. Notably, he was the best putter in the field on Friday, gaining over three strokes, although his struggles from tee to green cost him significantly. This week at Harbour Town Golf Links may not have yielded the desired results on the scoreboard, but it did indicate that Spieth is on a positive trajectory, especially after his recent difficulties at The Masters.
