He also is overrated. He isn't the next great one.

Re: Big Time


Jun 25, 2017, 7:11 PM

He is the best in the game right now. I would say he is working his way to greatness.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He isn't the best in the game. That's laughable.


Jun 25, 2017, 7:21 PM

I am not even sure he is ranked in the top 5 right now. I think he is just outside the top 5. He is really good and one of the better ones, but he isn't the second coming of Tiger or the next great one. He might win another major or two, but he might not win any any others. Time will tell. In golf there is no one dominant player right now and we may not see that again for many years.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He's 23... i think he's a lock to win another 1-2***

Geez so you have to be the next "great one" to be overrated? He's a great golfer and appeals to the younger crowd. He has proven that.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He was turned into the next big thing by the media.


Jun 25, 2017, 7:24 PM

He won't be. I am calling that now. He was overrated and overhyped. He is really good like many of the other top 10 or 20. It's not his fault the media was desperate for the next Tiger, Arnie, or Jack. He is not that guy.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: He was turned into the next big thing by the media.


Jun 25, 2017, 7:38 PM

He has won two majors....

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Exactly. Same year he had two.


Jun 25, 2017, 8:55 PM

He had a great year in 2015. He played well at the Masters in 2016, but after that he hasn't done anything.I think he was second. A lot of guys majors now. Jason Day has won a major now. Sergio has won 1 now and would have had plenty more without Tiger. Spieth hasn't been playing at that level lately. Look at Spieths probably last 5 majors and see what he did. I bet he hasn't been in the top 10 in any of them. Jimmy walker has one. Koepka just won the US Open. Adam Scott....Zack Johnson.. Dustin Johnson. etc etc. There are plenty of great players. He is one of the good ones. There are plenty that aren't jerks on the course too.

Don't recall anyone saying that he is the next great one. Rather he is just among the rising young stars on The PGA Tour.

Yea he's overrated alright,only the 2nd player in history to have 10 or more wins before the age of 24.

Kid that is spoiled and thinks throwing a temper tantrum will fix it. If you play bad don't blame someone else. Be mad at yourself for sucking. I saw him bless some camera man out for getting in his way during a round on tv. I was done after that.

I bet he don't cuss and say GD in front of kids like tiger did!! Tigers favorite word was F in front of all the kids. Yeah but spieth is a whiner

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Spieth isn't Tiger...no current player is. he is


Jun 25, 2017, 7:47 PM

Phil Michelson or Greg Norman. Beyond talented and will win his share or tournaments. But sometimes you will scratch your head watching.

No one in the game is Tiger or Jack...

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He isn't Phil. That's crazy.


Jun 25, 2017, 7:51 PM

Phil is a top 4 or 5 player of all time. Norman never won a major, so that is hard to argue against.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: He isn't Phil. That's crazy.


Jun 25, 2017, 8:44 PM

Wrong. Norman won a couple majors.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

My fault. Yeah he won 2. I was young.


Jun 25, 2017, 9:02 PM

I was think about that he didn't because he never won one on US soil. I was at the Masters with my Dad when I was a little kid when he came in 2nd. That was about 86 I believe. I won't even put Spieth with Norman. He was the number 1 player in the world for a long time. Not even in the same conversation.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: My fault. Yeah he won 2. I was young.


Jun 25, 2017, 9:15 PM

Norman never won a major??? You don't know much about golf. Tiger lover

I know ore than you'll ever know and will be better than...


Jun 25, 2017, 9:41 PM

you'll ever be. I was young for Norman. I was thinking he never won one due to the fact that he never won a Masters or a major on US soil. It was all of his 2nd place finishes at the Masters. I am not a Tiger lover. He was probably the best to ever play the game, but I don't like Tiger.

Re: I know ore than you'll ever know and will be better than...


Jun 25, 2017, 10:12 PM

Was the English? I was not young when Norman played well in my 30s. No tiger is not the best to ever play nor was jack. Bobby jones was the best to ever grip a club. Bye tiger lover

Spieth would have dominated the 80's since you are too


Jun 25, 2017, 9:43 PM [ in reply to My fault. Yeah he won 2. I was young. ]

Young to know. Guy reminds me a lot of Phil in his 20's with flashes of brilliance. Spieth is only 23...has 10 wins including majors. Who know's what he does next 20 years. But he is already dang good.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Spieth can be great. He isn't yet. Thats the point.


Jun 25, 2017, 9:50 PM

Many guys would have dominated a long time ago. Throw many of thee top 100 players and they would dominated the 70's. There are better players now and better athletes that play. There are more players around the globe.

Re: Spieth can be great. He isn't yet. Thats the point.

I like said you have no clue

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

So Phil is a top 4 or 5 player of all time? Ok, let's


Jun 25, 2017, 9:39 PM [ in reply to He isn't Phil. That's crazy. ]

compare the two then. Spieth is 23 years old and has 2 major wins. How many did Phil have when he was 23? Spieth has 10 PGA Tour wins. When Phil was 23, I think he had 3, maybe 4. To say Jordan Spieth is overrated is not only wrong, but it's also extremely ignorant.

How many would Phil have with no Tiger?


Jun 25, 2017, 9:47 PM

Phil has 5 majors and over 20 top 5's at majors. He has probably close to 10 2nd place finishes in Majors. To even talk about them in the same sentence is laughable. You might as well throw Rory, Dustin Johnson, and Jason Day in there with Phil.

How many times did Phil finish runner up to Tiger?


Jun 25, 2017, 10:23 PM [ in reply to How many would Phil have with no Tiger? ]

Of course comparing Phil's career to Jordan's career is laughable right now because Jordan is only 23 and Phil is on the tail end of a HOF career. But it's also laughable to compare Jordan's career at 23 to Phil's career at 23 because Jordan is way ahead of where Phil was at 23. Phil turned pro in 1991, how many times did he win a major before Tiger won his first one in 1997? Jordan won 2 majors in his third full year on tour, which by the way when he won the Masters he beat runner-up Phil Mickelson by 4 shots en route to tying the Masters scoring record of 18 under. But sure, keep comparing Jordan to Jason Day who's 6 years older than Jordan, Rory who's 5 years older and Dustin Johnson who's 10 years older.

second fastest pro to reach


Jun 26, 2017, 7:28 AM

10 wins at 23. He is behind Tiger and ahead of Jack. That tells you something. He does seem to have taken a step backward in some ways.
That being said, he plays too slow, and despite his success he is humble to a fault.
Right now he seems to have confidence issues. The put he gave up on that went in is evidence to me.
His sportsmanship is among the best. He respects his competition, but does not fear them.
He's good for the game...
