Former world number one Jordan Spieth ended his near four-year victory drought, gearing up for The Masters with a triumph at the US PGA Tour Texas Open.
Spieth, who hadn’t won since capturing his third major title at the 2017 British Open at Royal Birkdale, signaled he’s again a force to be reckoned with as the game’s best looked toward the first major championship of 2021 at Augusta National.
“This is a monumental win for me,” Spieth said. “It’s one that I’ve certainly thought about for a long time.”
Spieth fired seven birdies in a six-under-par 66, holding off tenacious playing partner Charley Hoffman to win by two strokes with an 18-under-par total of 270. Hoffman had cut Spieth’s lead to one before Spieth birdied the 17th hole at TPC San Antonio, Hoffman’s own 66 putting him on 16-under 272.
