CROMWELL, Conn. – For all the talk about Jordan Spieth’s putting issues in recent weeks, it’s only apropos that it’s been his short game that’s moved him to within 18 holes of his 10th PGA Tour title at the Travelers Championship.
Following a third-round 66 that left him a stroke clear of the field at TPC River Highlands, Spieth credited a run of crucial up-and-downs early in his round for keeping him in the lead.
The first came at the fourth hole when his approach landed wide right of the green and he chipped to 2 feet for par.
