Plus, the women’s Olympic field and Texas Tech product Mito Pereira’s bid to represent Chile in Paris
Cameron Young, left, celebrates with Jordan Spieth on the 18th green after they finished their round during the third round of the Travelers Championship golf tournament at TPC River Highlands, Saturday, June 22, 2024, in Cromwell, Conn.became a footnote in history as the only player to twice be in the same group as someone who broke 60.
What Spieth doesn’t recall is that he hit the ball better than Thomas that day — Spieth’s average proximity to the hole was 18 feet, compared with 25 feet for Thomas.“There’s definitely an argument to be for JT because he knew he needed eagle and made a 15-foot slider,” Spieth said. “That’s a little bit different. That was the most clutch of the three.”
“He wanted to get to a certain number of points because obviously he’s fighting for his PGA Tour card,” Pereira said last week at LIV Golf Nashville. “It’s not that one is more important than the other. Obviously trying to get to the PGA Tour is his main goal. He made that decision and I think it’s very smart to do it.”
Pereira, best known for losing a one-shot lead with a double bogey on the final hole of the 2022 PGA Championship, was part of a seven-man playoff for the bronze medal in the Tokyo Olympics. Niemann finished one shot out of the playoff, which was won by C.T. Pan of Taiwan.
