Golf fans go crazy over Jordan Spieth’s “drunken” Players Championship start

Jordan Spieth delivered a thrilling performance at The Players Championship, keeping fans on edge with a round full of highs and lows. He started strong, carding two early birdies, including a stunning hole-out from the sand on the par-5 11th. However, trouble soon followed as he found the water on the 14th, leading to a double bogey and a rapid drop back to even par.

The rollercoaster continued with another incredible hole-out for eagle on the 16th, marking his first career round at The Players with multiple eagles. Yet, inconsistency struck again when he three-putted the iconic 17th, surrendering a shot. He quickly rebounded with a birdie on the 18th, wrapping up a chaotic but impressive 2-under 34 on his opening nine.

Spieth’s back nine was comparatively calmer, with a birdie on the 2nd and a bogey on the 7th, finishing the day with a 2-under 70. Despite the turbulence, he remains in contention, trailing leader Lucas Glover by four strokes. With more action ahead, golf fans eagerly anticipate what Spieth will bring in the next round.
