Jordan Spieth thinks return to old form could be ‘around the corner’

Jordan Spieth wants to get back to his old form, and he’s hoping this weekend at Pebble Beach is the start of that.

Spieth, of course, won the Masters and the US Open in 2015, then found himself with back-to-back green jackets before what became an infamous collapse. Since then, he has won the PGA Championship but never quite found what he had in the tank.

This weekend, however, Spieth will be at a famous course where he has won before, winning the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in 2017.

“There’s no better place on planet Earth than Pebble Beach when it’s 65 degrees,” Spieth said in a recent interview with PK Press Club Digital.

Spieth and Pro-Am have one thing in common in their respective partnerships with AT&T. This year marks the 41st year that AT&T will be the sponsor of the Pro-Am.

“I think it’s one of the best golf courses in the world, not to mention the fact that it’s now a prestigious event, it’s now become one of the best tournaments in the world on one of the best golf courses in the world,” Spieth said. “The fact that, for me, it almost feels like a home event. AT&T does a lot of things to make me feel welcome, they support me like everyone else supports me at the event, which is pretty awesome. It’s a great way to start the year.”

Surprisingly, Spieth is only 32 years old and still has a lot of golf ahead of him. Certainly, he takes a look at the young men taking over the game, especially since since the start of the decade, 15 of the last 23 major winners have been younger than Spieth.

“It’s funny, even after being on tour, six, seven years, you know, they were only a few years younger than me, and I knew them from elementary school, high school, college, so I knew who they were, and then all of a sudden, now I’m like, man, I don’t, these, these guys were born after 2000,” Spieth joked.

“But, you know, I feel good, right? I feel healthy. I’m at a different stage in my life now, where I have three little kids who take the show on the road. I feel like I’ve started to find that balance in the last few years.”

Spieth has earned less than $5.5 million over the past two golf seasons, after earning more than $7 million in 2023 alone, and last year was the first Ryder Cup he hasn’t won since his first in 2014. But being one Open Championship victory away from becoming the seventh golfer to win a career Grand Slam, he’s not fading away just yet.

“I’m looking to have a really strong run. I’m looking for consistency. I’m looking for the consistency that I know I’m capable of, that I had for the first five or six years of my career where it felt like, you know, every week I was training, and, not to say I didn’t miss a cut here or there or have weeks off. But for the most part, I was in it and I felt like I was in it. be week in and week out. And that kind of consistency leads to results,” Spieth said.

“I’d love to win more majors. I’d love to replicate the career I’ve had at this point over the next eight years, right? As far as wins, majors, whatever it is. But the way to do that is to get more consistent again. I feel like that level of consistency is right around the corner again, and it will yield results.”
