Jordan Spieth has endured yet another underwhelming Masters tournament this week.
Spieth entered The Masters with high hopes of rediscovering some of the magic that saw him win a green jacket in 2015.
However, the 32-year-old from Dallas has carded rounds of 72, 73 and 70 to leave him 10 shots adrift of the leaders after 54 holes at Augusta National.
It has been so frustrating to watch Jordan Spieth try his hardest at The Masters this week for scant reward.
Spieth is a hugely popular figure at The Masters, and he always thrills the patrons at Augusta National with his exciting playing style.
However, it must be incredibly frustrating for him as he continually struggles to get into contention to actually win golf tournaments.
Augusta National has been challenging for all of the players so far this week.
However, Spieth has given himself more problems than most. In fact, it’s remarkable that he’s currently inside the top-25, given how poorly he has played at times.
What Jordan Spieth must try for the first time if he’s to win The Masters again
There is no doubt about the 13-time PGA Tour winner’s application and determination to get back to his very best.
However, it seems as though he is overcomplicating his swing and suffering from paralysis by analysis as a result.
In addition to that, Spieth has neglected the real problem club in his bag.
He has performed terribly on the greens in six out of the last six seasons on the PGA Tour.
From the 2025 season going backwards, Spieth has ranked 65th, 101st, 79th, 155th, 33rd, and 105th in strokes gained putting.
And things have got even worse for him during The Masters this week.
Spieth is ranked last in putting at Augusta after three rounds, averaging 1.8 putts every time he has hit a green in regulation.
For context, Brian Campbell leads the way with an average of 1.41 putts per GIR.
Rich Beem noticed a problem Spieth had at The Valero Texas Open last week.
There is an instant fix to Jordan Spieth’s problem
The 2002 PGA Championship winner highlighted how Spieth’s left shoulder is getting lower and lower when he addresses his putts with every week that passes.
As a result, he is almost hitting down on his putts now, something which is preventing him from rolling his ball purely.
The instant fix for this is a conventional putting grip.
It would get his left shoulder back level with his right. The thing is, he may as well try something different, even though he has never used a conventional putting grip in his entire career.
It’s not as if things can get any worse for the American, is it?
Jordan Spieth was the best putter in the world a decade ago and his brilliance on the greens was one of the main contributing factors to his Masters win in 2015.
However, his fall-off with the putter has been so drastic that he may never succeed at Augusta National again unless he tries something completely different.
It’s time for a change, Jordan.
