Jordan Spieth is set to tee off at The CJ Cup Byron Nelson 2024 on Thursday, May 2. The 30-year-old golfer will commence his outing at TPC Craig Ranch in Texas at 8:45 am ET.
Spieth will be joined by Sungjae Im and the event’s defending champion Jason Day on the 10th tee on Thursday. The trio will follow the pairing of Camilo Villegas, Tom Kim and Mackenzie Hughes.
Notably, Spieth has had a shaky start to the 2024 PGA Tour schedule. Having commenced the season with a solo third-place finish at The Sentry in January, the ace golfer failed to make the cut at The Players Championship and The Masters.
The PGA Tour policy board member suffered a major woe as he got disqualified for signing an incorrect scorecard at The Genesis Invitational. However, Spieth is currently the favorite to win The CJ Cup Byron Nelson.
According to SportsLine, Spieth comes into The CJ Cup Byron Nelson with 12-1 odds. Interestingly, he is followed by Jason Day with 18-1 odds to defend his title.
It is pertinent to note that Spieth has also been struggling with a wrist injury this season. The golfer had rested a week after his T39 finish at the RBC Heritage, before returning to the field this week. Addressing the same, the three-time Major winner said he might need more rest to solve the injury problem.
Speaking in the press conference ahead of The CJ Cup Byron Nelson 2024, Jordan Spieth said (at 3:32):
"I think I'd probably be advised to take more than one in order for it to really get helped. But it's one of those things like I'm not doing further damage, is my understanding. It's just management until I can figure out exactly what maybe solves the problem going forward."
It'll be interesting to see how the PGA Tour star finishes this week on the The CJ Cup Byron Nelson leaderboard.
