Jordan Spieth recently claimed that the Masters is “technically the easiest Major to win” due to its smaller field and familiar course. He believes Augusta National’s prestige has exaggerated its difficulty, especially for players like Rory McIlroy chasing a career Grand Slam.
Spieth pointed out that Augusta’s layout is more forgiving off the tee than other majors, allowing him to compete even when not in top form. He suggested that driving accuracy is less critical, making it easier for experienced players to navigate the course successfully.
Reflecting on his past performances, Spieth expressed confidence in contending at Augusta regardless of his form. He emphasized that his experience and knowledge of the course give him an advantage, reinforcing his belief that the Masters is the most manageable major.
