Watching Spieth implode is always a joy to watch

3 or 4 times that I can recall

Twice at Augusta and couple times else. He's learned to finish, but as I said when he does it, it is a joy to watch.

I don't know I feel he whines too much at times. These announcers treat him like Tiger, yet he isn't Tiger like.

He's a great player I just don't like the attitude sometimes. DeChambeau and he will get into a big rivalry soon I believe.

He backdoored his US Open win, but I don't discredit it, while some act like he "won" it.

DeChambeau can't hold Spieth's jock. Spieth ain't worried about him

Yeah okay if you think so.

Your post is what I'm talking about people treat him like Tiger. He's nowhere close to it.

Tiger
Gretzky
Bonds
Rice

They dominated their sports like never seen before or will be seen after.

At 21(youngest US Open winner in 92 years) he shot a 69 in the final round to best DJ's 70. Also birdied 18 while DJ couldn't.

How is that a backdoor?

I didn't say he was near Tiger. I said DeChambeau isn't in Spieth's galaxy. Spieth has accomplished things that only a few people ever have in the game.

Tiger is my favorite golfer of all time, btw.

Bsckdoored it by having a 3 putt give him a title

I said I don't discredit him but to act like he went out and won it is wrong.

Spieth doubled a par 3 right before that. And the long putt he made on 16 was 100% going and getting it. So was the birdie on 18 that DJ couldnt get.

If you say he backdoored the win, I say he won it twice

Okay so did Spieth win the US. amateur and NCAA same year? No Jack Tiger and DeChambeau have done it.

Was Spieth ever highest ranked amateur at time turned pro? No but DeChambeau was.

Learn about DeChambeau before you make that claim

The worst part was DeChambeau couldn't defend either title as SMU was on probation (shocker I know) and he signed with Puma before US Amatuer

Bryson has the same number of PGA Tour victories I do. I think he's going to be good, and he had an unreal amateur career, but if you're going to slam people for comparing Spieth to Tiger you deserve a little flack for comparing Dechambeau to Spieth.

Bryson hasn't impressed at all with the side-saddle, so until he gets better with that he won't be near the winners circle (I do think he'll get better).

I know all about him. And I know he has 1 top 10 in 23 attempts on tour. Spieth has 44 in 108 attempts.

Spieth went pro after his Freshman Year so this is a ridiculously unfair comparison.
