Former PGA Tour Star Picks Jordan Spieth in Golf Draft—Then Shocks Fans with Health Warning!

Former PGA Tour professional Smylie Kaufman recently raised health concerns about Jordan Spieth during an NFL-style golf draft on *The Smylie Show*. Despite choosing Spieth for his projected decade-long performance, Kaufman pointed out the golfer’s recurring wrist issues, which nearly sidelined him from the 2024 RBC Heritage tournament.

Kaufman’s concern stems from Spieth’s persistent struggle since a 2023 wrist injury. The 13-time PGA Tour winner has yet to secure a victory since then, although he managed top-10 finishes at the WM Phoenix Open and the Cognizant Classic. Spieth’s form and world ranking have noticeably declined throughout 2025.

Looking ahead, Spieth will compete in the CJ Cup Byron Nelson in his home state of Texas. Still chasing his first win since 2022, he hopes to recapture past form at TPC Craig Ranch, where he finished runner-up in 2022. His recent frustration at The Masters highlights the mounting pressure to return to winning ways.
