Country star Owen recounts Spieth's called shot
PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. – Jordan Spieth was all smiles while reliving the story of how he’s about to receive a fairway plaque in – of all places – Vero Beach, Fla.
Spieth is playing this week’s AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am alongside country music star Jake Owen, and the two frequently play friendly rounds together. It was that friendship that brought Spieth to Owen’s charity event at Vero Beach Country Club in December.
Spieth garnered a few headlines that week by hitting a “Happy Gilmore” shot off the opening tee, but Owen offered a tale that trumped it Wednesday after Spieth prompted him to “tell them about the plaque.”
