Jordan Spieth. Remember him? There was a time, not too long ago, when Spieth seemed unbeatable. Over a stretch spanning from 2015-2017, Spieth had won it all. Well, almost all of them. In 2015, he won the Masters, and the US Open. In 2017, he became the first person in 54 years to win three major events before turning 24 years old, a feat which was last accomplished by Jack Nicklaus in 1963 before Spieth duplicated that set of achievements. At that time, it’s hard to bet against Spieth winning more, as the world was still in front of him.
These days, he’s struggling to put together great performances, let alone win tournaments. But that being said, one thing remains the same for Mr. Spieth, and that’s the fact that he has a thick wallet and an even fatter bank account. He may not be winning lately, but Spieth is still attracting clients for endorsement deals and cashing in cheques from the chunks he gets out of golf tournament purses.
