Jordan Spieth faced a heartbreaking setback at the Genesis Invitational as he found himself disqualified due to signing an incorrect scorecard. Expressing remorse, Spieth acknowledged his error, emphasizing his love for the tournament and course while thanking fans for their support.
Entering Friday’s round just two strokes behind the event leader, Patrick Cantlay, Spieth showcased early promise with three birdies in his first seven holes. However, his momentum waned on the back nine, marred by three bogeys before a late birdie on the 17th hole offered a glimmer of hope. Unfortunately, his round concluded with a double bogey on the 18th.
Spieth’s struggles were compounded by reported feelings of unwellness earlier in the day, further adding to the disappointment of his disqualification. This marked a significant moment for the world’s 12th-ranked golfer, as it was his first disqualification in his illustrious 263-tournament career on the PGA Tour.
