Jose Newman32 said:To me, he feels like the guy who could have been the next Jordan Spieth much earlier. Back when he was tearing up the European Tour, winning two or three in a row, it felt like nobody could touch him.
But looking at it all together, sure, it's a solid career for a 30-year-old, but it's not quite that elite tier I think he's capable of. He's got that Rory vibe, just younger and with twice the Majors, if you know what I mean...
Spieth is on fire, three wins in a row
I hear you, I hear you... 🙂
But if following golf has taught me anything, it’s how insanely hard it is to maintain consistency—not just in winning, but in staying at the top. Only a handful of people actually pull it off. Right now, in my book, that's just Rory and Spieth. Even Rory had that year-long slump, whereas Spieth is still too young to have hit a wall like that yet. 🙂
Kaymer is right there behind them. Ask Sergio Garcia, Henrik Stenson, Lee Westwood, and the rest of the crew what they'd give up—not for two, but for just one Major... 😁
Tiger Woods was in a league of his own ten years ago, and I doubt anyone's coming close to that kind of dominance again. Personally, I think Phil Mickelson was in the same class as today's Spieth and Rory.
