when i watched this live it was the first time i ever willingly watched golf, i was probably really bored, saw it on and decided to give it a shot. This was my introduction into golf from a fan's point of view. It was hard to watch the meltdown, but I actually fell in love with the game when I realized how quickly everything could just go to shit lol. Jordan is now one of my top 3 favorite players, I'll never forget this.
Yeah it takes a moment like that to realize how good these guys are
I didn't like golf buy watched the British open one Sunday afternoon one year because there was a Brit in the lead (can't remember who he was, but he's not really been a contender before it since). Of course he messed it up being a British sportsmen and all. But really enjoyed it. But it wasn't untill this year's Masters that I really got hooked. Having £5 on Speith at 11-1 helped with my enjoyment of it (untill the 12th on day four of course).
@@nonamebill7421 Justin Rose is a british who has contended in majors in recent years, great player, also won gold medal in Rio. He came really close at the British Open when he was younger and also came really close at the masters when Sergio Garcia won, he beat Phil Mickelson at the US Open.
The comeback kid. He just won the Valero Texas Open. almost 4 years after the last win he had. So happy for him.
Won again. However despite being back he is just so inconsistent.
@@5roductionz1466 best in the world tee to green literally can’t putt it’s crazy
@@LiMitZplus yeah. He can't putt inside of 10 feet.
@@LiMitZplus if it's 12 feet for birdie, he will make, but 4-8 feet for par or birdie it's a miss. And his long putting is usually good but is kinda bad now. Still though he is playing better.
@@LiMitZplus Lol yeah back then he wasn't that great tee to green but his putting was insane, now he's great tee to green but his putting is bad
Man never recovered
That’s why watching this hurts so bad
Also getting married didnt help..took his focus away im sure
Until today
FINNALY HE DID TODAY
Turn on NBC. 2nd place going into Sunday at bay hill. He’s young, he’ll recover.
That was harder to watch than Ernie Els's putting disaster on the 1st hole in Round 1.
You can hear the pain in his voice...
Bella E yes you can
he will never be tigah
anyone here after he hit another quad on 15th in the 2024 masters?
I believe, as he appeared to say, that starting on the tenth hole he simply tried to play safe, and this ruined his game. Sort of like when a football team gets a big lead and starts to play conservative which then allows the opponent back in the game. He needed to keep his swing aggressive but he instead eased up to play safe and this does not work in golf because one should not change tempo like that. Yes, he simply tried to protect his lead, played "not to lose"
Norman’s 1996 meltdown is still the toughest one for me to watch
Ya bc at least Spieth won already..Norman never won it
I think Norman handled it much better. You never saw him telling a cameraman to stop filming him. He just stood there and took it like a man. And yes, Spieth is younger than Norman was, but I still think it’s telling of each one’s character.
Poor man lost to a guy that wasn't even supposed to be playing
Wasn't supposed to be there and has never done anything in golf since!
@@flyingjibberish he’s on the pga tour playing tournaments since … he’s doing more than 99.9% of golfer ever will
@@flyingjibberish He still won the masters, which is more then what any pro accomplished
Take away that quad bogey and the one he had on 15 yesterday, and this kid could've been playing for his 3rd straight jacket this weekend.
He's 22 years old with 2 majors and a fed ex cup win. he's got a long career ahead of him of lots of wins and more major wins....
he is young but he was so damn close to winning 2x masters in a row, but he choked like the Seattle Seahawks and GS Warriors.
MuzzleBlast he'll never win again
@@cwoods711 could you be any more closeted? Lol
Remember Tom Watson at St Andrews never recovered , he could have been well in teens
Dang..
If looks could kill! He did NOT want to do that interview OR present that jacket. I give him props for not strangling somebody, but the pissed-off look in his eyes (at himself, obviously) was priceless.
I just went through what Spieth went through. Today, while I was hitting from the same tees as my dad, I had a 6 stroke lead heading into hole 15. In that hole, I scored a seven and he scored a 5. I was still 4 strokes on top, though. In 16, I scored a 7 and he scored a 4. Then in 17, I scored a 4, and he scored a 3. All of the sudden, we were tied. I barely made it out alive with a draw. If we were always close throughout the game, I would've been satisfied, but with a 6 shot lead, I'm just so angry at myself. Heck, how will I turnout with this loss?
Seriously, so I don't matter?
ArcangeloSports NOS Wow. That's a great analogy and story
Thank you, I spent 5 minutes on that. It's nice somebody admires my work.
Well, sorry for expressing what I went through that day. I was just feeling a little down, and now I'm being mocked for that? How about you just back off, alright?
I guess so...at least someone actually replied with something nice. Besides, I beat him a couple of games later.
i cried
Our prayers and thoughts go out to Jordan and his family for this great loss. Jordan's family gives thanks to all the well wishers in this hard time and would hope that everyone respects their privacy in their time of grieving.
SAINT MICHAEL wow, no respect who taught you that mouth?
Justin Case good post
Okay, a little bit too far. I mean, it's sad he lost, but it's not like he's going through a family tragedy. He'll get through it, it's already been a year, I'm sure he's over it. We don't need to feel sympathy for someone who doesn't need sympathy. He's got determination. He'll get another green jacket soon enough.
Crazy it happened again today
I did that on the PS5 online last night on Amen Corner and was raging.
Amen Corner bites again!
Part Duo Yesterday...no greeen jacket 4 u
Tiger Never choked like this guy did when he was young.
imagine using someone like tiger woods as a baseline
People naively compared speith to tiger when speith has haD his solid year. It’s sad that people actually made the comparison but it was definitely done
I’ve seen Tiger choke many times. Everyone screws up
Shang Tsung “many times” right
This comment didn't age well after his 10 on the same hole.
I'm not much of a gambler. But I'll do the odd bet on big sporting events. I'd never bet on golf before but had a feeling about Speith this year. I went to my bookies (they're legal here in the UK) and asked the odds on speith winning the masters. It was 11-1 so I put £5 on it. I was watching the masters live, planning on going down the pub for a few drinks and then for a Curry. Seeing as I'm going to be collecting £59 pound in the morning, I thought I'll treat myself. And then this happened. I've never been able to bring myself to betting on golf again.
The camera wasn’t anywhere near his face though was it?
Going at that pin on Sunday is the biggest mistake of the masters. Under no circumstance do you go for that pin. Jordan was told this by countless players. But he didn't listen. Losing that tournament the way he did messed him up because of all the players that told him never to go for that pin. You can't win the tournament on that hole. But you can lose it. And boy did he. That hole was created to mess with your head. To lure you in. Everything about that hole is a trap.
Goodnight
Law of averages
Had money on willett. Beautiful day.
We all thought Jordan Spieth in 2015 was going to be a legend. But unfortunately, he has been on a spiral ever since this choke job. Past 3 years he’s been a no show
This was the start of the wrong timeline
Whose here after Cameron Smith's triple bogey on this hole the final round
Hope cam is able to come back stronger because of it though, kinda like Jordan did!
He folded.
Ernie probably doesn't feel so bad now lol
Same thing happened to Sergio and Tiger same hole give me a break
Ya he was never the same
truth be told, he needed humbling
It ain't over till it's over. Golf is played in a space of about half a foot, between the ears.
Just needed a Diet Coke and some peanut m&ms
He forgot to not hit 2 in the drink
Jordan did exactly what you are not supposed to do. He went for the flag. Most golfers go way left as that area around the flag is only 9ft wide at best with a hill back down to the water.
It must’ve been painful for Jordan to put on Danny Willet’s green jacket
I think that was Oliver Twist who snuck in the victory
They make it sound like someone died. It's one Bad hole, get over it.
Yes but imagine every one you know watch you breakdown
How was that a meltdown?
He was up five strokes in the final round, and lost. That is a meltdown
@@darthvader2657 LOL! I thought it meant literally a meltdown like psycho stuff. I know nothing about golf except the ball goes in the hole and that sand and water are bad.
This wouldve ruined a lot of people for good
Fucking ABC News lol. Damn.
He needs to sort out his 'chicken wing' and release the club when under pressure.
+barry nicholas yeah tell the guy who has 2 Major wins how to release the golf club
+Jairo Benga I'm telling you why he hit the ball badly when under pressure, that's all.
@@MrBarrynicholas you must walk around with a feeling of self importance to tell the people on this thread why a very good professional golfer needs to sort out his swing. I'm sure Jordan Speith is doing just fine.
@@kimgallagher490 If you know the mechanics of a golf swing maybe you would understand how and why he made those errors.
@@kimgallagher490 Just because OP isn't a pro doesn't mean he can't recognize an evident swing flaw. Guess what? Jordan Spieth is human. Under pressure, his swing broke down-same thing that happens to us scrubs. He tightened up. Happens to everybody at some point.
Tin Cup :)
Choked harder than the warriors in 2016
How is this an epic meltdown???
+Faith Welton
After 5 shot lead on the final round, his 9 iron fade shot on the par 3 green 12th hole turns into a Quadruple bogey and his lead collapsed. Loses a chance to have back to back wins at Masters. Therefore, this can be easily qualified as a meltdown of epic proportions on the golf world's biggest stage.
+Faith Welton ...because golf is so boring that this is big and calls for the strongest description possible. And I am a golf nut but it's true, lol.
+BKellyS watch how golf protects its golden boy cause golf has to compete with other sports for ratings. all these new players are just course managers not players. tiger is the last player to come thru the ranks golf is on a downward spiral with ratings. speith throws temper tantrums trust me.
Oh boo hoo you didn't get 2 million dollars for hitting a ball into a hole
Man it's not that, it's that he was trying to do something like only 3 other people have done (win back to back masters). This is the biggest tournament in golf and for him to do this on a big stage sucks. You can't even beak 200 on that course so shut the fuck up you trolling piece of shit.
Exactly wait till next year when every media person keeps asking him about last year at agusta media day. Im gonna laugh, watch him get pissed and show you how immature he really is. He is such a little bitch. "Did you feel like last year is behind you"? "Did you feel like this round cast off the melt down from last year" "Do you feel like last year was just a fluke? How is your confidence? just wait. ...
@Krish Nathan Not at all.
@@premieredesigns8287 Wow what a guy you are
Win like a man and lose like a man. Instead he won like a man and lost like a little kid.
Danny knows he only won because another man crumbled
Epic meltdown?
all my homies hate danny willet
HULK SMASH

Completely unprofessional from both Spieth and his caddy. Spieth for the meltdown and the caddy for failing in his duty to take him aside to get composed. It may of made dramatic TV but from a professional sports perspective it was disgraceful to throw the tournament away so cheaply.
He's led a very charmed life. Glad that diversity reached up and slapped him one.
Does anyone realize this is about a GAME?
+Rick Richardson Its only worth 2 million dollars if you win this "game" no big deal
Ohh yeah and this “game” paid $50 m to Speith in 2015
@@samuellong3321 It is a game no matter what
