Jordan Spieth dazzled at the Byron Nelson with a final-round 62, but experts suggest his PGA Championship hopes are fading. Despite a top-five finish, analyst Rex Hoggard questions Spieth’s prospects at Quail Hollow due to past struggles there.
Hoggard noted that even in Spieth’s prime, Quail Hollow never suited his game. On the *Rex and Lav* podcast, he stated he’d be “legitimately surprised” if Spieth completes the career Grand Slam at this venue, citing course fit issues.
Though Spieth’s fanbase remains optimistic, momentum appears to be shifting. Rising talent Scottie Scheffler is making waves, drawing attention as a serious contender. Some analysts, however, caution that Scheffler could still face tactical challenges on the demanding course.
With contenders like Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler in peak form, Spieth faces fierce competition. The PGA Championship at Quail Hollow promises drama, as golf’s elite battle for one of the sport’s most coveted titles.
