It wasn’t quite the glory days #SB2K17, but most of that crew—Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, and Smylie Kaufman—were recently together on a buddies golf trip to Ireland. Not surprisingly, it looked like the boys had a great time. But surprisingly, Spieth made a big mistake in an area he usually specializes in.
We’ve heard JT praise Jordan for his ability to keep a clean scorecard in the past. And no, we’re not talking about his actual round, but how he keeps track of everyone’s score.
“There may be nobody on planet Earth that is better at keeping a scorecard and keeping track of bets than he is,” Thomas said of his longtime pal on the Smylie Show last year.
That’s high praise. And Spieth is always entrusted to keep the group’s scorecard. But apparently, the three-time major champ was way, way off his scorecard game in Ireland. Leading to a lot of confusion on the course—and this funny discussion between all three this week:
The gist of the story is that Spieth messed up the scorecard so badly that he had to take a break while he tried to figure out why $140 in bets were missing.
“I just didn’t even play a hole because I’m trying to figure out these numbers,” Spieth said on this week’s The Smylie Show. “We never got there.”
Tough scene. Well, at least those guys were there in Ireland. Poor Rickie Fowler must have been on dad duty.
Hey, it happens. Heck, keeping track of Spieth’s wild scorecards is tough by itself. Then you factor in some beers, and, well, things can get sloppy. We’ve got faith in Jordan bouncing back from this. And these guys will all survive no matter how that missing $140 gets resolved.
