Jordan Spieth continues his steady return from left wrist surgery, showing promising signs at the Cognizant Classic. Despite falling short of victory, his top-10 finish reinforced his belief that he’s trending in the right direction. While not yet at full strength, Spieth remains optimistic about his progress.
Reflecting on his performance, Spieth acknowledged his improvement, comparing it to his T4 finish in Phoenix. He admitted to operating at just 60% of his potential but was encouraged by his ability to compete on a challenging course. His confidence in his game’s direction remains steadfast.
Having navigated career slumps before, Spieth knows the road to resurgence. His 2021 comeback saw him rise from world No. 92 to a Ryder Cup berth, and he believes he is now better prepared to handle adversity. The 31-year-old sees a stronger mindset as a key difference this time.
Spieth is focused on consistency rather than searching for quick fixes. With no physical limitations and a clear understanding of his strengths, he is confident that success is within reach. “I know that I’m on the right track,” he said, trusting that his patience will pay off.
