Took him a couple days but Spieth is striking it well but still can't putt worth a shit. Been the story of this resurgence he's been on this past year+. If his putter is working, he's going to be in contention. If not, he's pretty ho hum.

After today, I'd say he probably feels pretty good about his ball striking going into Valero. And it's not a Dye course so he probably feels good about his putting chances.

Might be time to say "Once upon a time Spieth was a good putter" 😋

I definitely read this as “Spieth defeats Spieth after Jordan misses easy 7’ birdie putt “

and I wouldn’t have been wrong

Good analysis... Spieth currently seems to  overread a lot of putts.  Self doubt over shorter putts is a demon that gets in his head way too often.  Just a streaky putter with terrible match play results due to way too many unforced errors.

It's a shame that they don't re-seed this event before the Saturday matches...

Koepka vs DJ in a quarterfinal match is too early.  

Yep. Seems like a no brainer. Surprised NBC doesn’t demand it.

Still would prefer re-seeding so this DJ vs Koepka match would have not happened until Sunday...

Do you also think that March Madness, the NFL, NBA playoffs or any other bracketed tournament be re-seeded?

Maybe you and me, but average fan isn’t watching golf at 8/9am on Sunday

I’m all for them really going crazy with the format. Have them do shotgun starts during group play so you have matches ending all over the course. 
 

Making your opponent shotgun beers after birdies in match play does sound fun

Only one of those I care about is March Madness, and no I'm not a fan of it being re-seeded
