Jordan Spieth Arrives in Scotland, Starts Practicing Backwards Shots Off Road Hole Wall

"I didn't come here to play boring golf," said Jordan Spieth as he strolled up to the wall along the 17th green Monday at St. Andrews.


Spieth has already had a more
eventful 24 hours than you. He won his second John Deere Classic out in
Illinois late Sunday, hopped on the charter over to Scotland, flew
through the night, and then went to St. Andrews for a Monday practice
round.


Spieth was one of the last
players out on the Old Course at St. Andrews, where the sun doesn't set
until just before 10 p.m. local and you can play golf well after that.
Spieth played all 18 by himself, but did cross paths with the last guy
to come to the British Open holding the first two majors of the year. On
the 16th green, Spieth played through Tiger Woods, who was putting
around for an extended stretch.
