Jordan Spieth is returning from an injury and trying to get back in form as quickly as possible. He has had an average start to the 2025 PGA Tour season with a T69, T4, and missed cut finishes in his first three events.

The 31-year-old recently gave an interview to Smylie Kaufman where he revealed he was playing with 4 to 6 handicap two weeks before starting the 2025 PGA Tour season.

"Honestly, the meteoric rise from then until now has been some of the most impressive improvement in my game that I’ve ever had but that’s not saying a whole lot because I started lower than I had since I was probably 9 [years old]," Spieth said.

Apart from Jordan Spieth, the 2025 Cognizant Classic has a couple of prominent names like Shane Lowry, Sepp Straka, and Russell Henley.
