Jordan Spieth is new world no. 1
“Right now I’m focused on just getting my game the way I think it has to be to win tournaments like this”. I felt no one was going to stop me today. “A lot of emotion has come out because I’ve been so close so many times and fallen short”. When I give myself opportunities with wedges in my hand I have got to take advantage of those.

Spieth’s combined score of 54-under at the majors this season beat Tiger Woods’ previous record of 53-under, set in 2000. That was a pretty amazing accomplishment.
“It’s a fantastic record to hold…” I was just amazed at how great the golf was this week.
He added: “I still want to accomplish that number one goal of mine which is to be the best player in the world“.
Along with trying to win his first major, Day was trying to avoid being the wrong kind of footnote in golf history. “I’ll always be a number one player in the world”, added the American, the second-youngest to ascend the summit behind Woods, who was 21 when he first reached number one in 1997. It feels really good. It’s an unbelievable feeling.
“I see Jordan, Rory, with some Jason Day chucked in there as well, going toe-to-toe for the next few months to try and establish the top dog”. He could easily have gone off the rails, drinking when he was 12, but Swatton guided him through those difficult years and the pair came out of the other side even closer.
And after six top-10 finishes in majors since coming third in the Masters at Augusta in 2013, questions have been posed as to whether Day had the nerve to ever land one of the big four tournaments.
Jason Day’s winning performance at the PGA Championship merited congratulations from 14-time major champion Tiger Woods. “He wailed it. It was a stripe show”. It was really a clinic to watch. Without the shirt, this picture would still be awesome – but with it, it’s one of the best moments and best images of the entire 2015 season.
His lead from there never less than two strokes and at times as high as four. But he still was in control. “And when he hit that shot and he had what looked like a wedge into the hole, I knew I was going to be playing uphill from there”.
Rose would fall to fourth by day’s end, at 14-under, just behind South Africa’s Branden Grace, who shot a 69 to finish 15-under.
I think Day will be the first to tell you that it’s been worth the wait.

“What I’m looking forward to in the future is the sheer competition of being able to fight against these guys each week”.
