Jordan Spieth Aims for Revival at Pebble Beach

Jordan Spieth is eager to return to his previous form, thinking this weekend at Pebble Beach might just be the turning point.

He had a fantastic 2015, winning both the Masters and the U.S. Open, and then he famously donned the green jacket shortly after. However, his subsequent fall from grace has been hard to overlook. Although he managed to snag a PGA Championship since then, it just hasn’t felt like he’s fully recaptured his former power on the course.

This weekend, Spieth will be playing at Pebble Beach, a site of his victory during the 2017 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.

“There’s no better place on earth than Pebble Beach at 65 degrees,” Spieth remarked in a recent conversation.

He’s excited about the ongoing partnership with AT&T for the Pro-Am, marking its 41st year of sponsorship.

“I think this is one of the best golf courses in the world,” he said. “It’s a prestigious tournament on one of the best courses. It feels like a home event for me, and AT&T makes me feel welcome. Everyone here is rooting for me, which is just fantastic. It’s a great way to kick off the year.”

At only 32, Spieth still has plenty of golfing years ahead of him. He’s noticed a younger wave taking over the sport, as 15 of the last 23 major winners have been younger than him since 2020.

“It’s amusing. Just six or seven years ago, I was out there and these guys were just a few years younger than me, maybe from elementary or high school. Now I realize some of them were born after 2000,” he joked.

He continued, “I feel really good. I’m in a different stage of life now, especially with three little kids. It’s a balance that I feel like I’ve been figuring out the last few years.”

In recent seasons, Spieth has earned just below $5.5 million, a stark contrast to the $7 million he made in 2023. This past year marked his first time missing the Ryder Cup since debuting in 2014. Still, he isn’t losing hope—he came close to being only the seventh golfer ever to achieve a career Grand Slam.

“I’m aiming for a solid run. Consistency is what I’m after. Early in my career, it was always about improving every week, despite the occasional off week. Overall, I had a good rhythm—something I’m looking to recapture,” Spieth reflected.

“I want to win more majors. I want to replicate what I’ve done in these last eight years moving forward. It feels like that stability is almost in reach, and I believe it’ll lead to success.”
