It’s been up-and-down for Jordan Spieth this year, to say the least, and that continued with his first round at the 2020 U.S. Open.
On No. 2 at Winged Foot, he hit a drive that actually got wedged between a pair of trees. That sent him back in a cart back to the tee box to try again. He’d end up with a double-bogey on the hole.
But he also hit an incredible putt in which he aimed way right and watched it go downhill left into the hole on No. 5.
The Jordan Spieth Experience was in full effect on Thursday.

Everyone: "You can win the U.S. Open with 72 pars."
Spieth: "You can also win it with 33 bogeys and 33 birdies." pic.twitter.com/HmoYiHpn2K— Kyle Porter (@KylePorterCBS) September 17, 2020
