Regardless of the form Spieth is in, he is always someone to watch out for at Augusta National. He did not finish outside the top two across his first three starts at The Masters, winning in 2015.
Obviously, the last few years have not seen the Texan at his best. It is rapidly approaching four years since his most recent win on the PGA Tour. Nevertheless, Johnson Wagner is confident that Spieth’s name will be prominent on Augusta National’s iconic leaderboards in a couple of weeks.
Johnson Wagner assesses Jordan Spieth’s form heading into The Masters Spieth is yet to finish inside the top 10 on the PGA Tour this season. He has, however, registered two 11th place finishes, while he was 12th at the Genesis Invitational. Speaking on CBS Sports , Wagner was asked about what he wanted to see from the 32-year-old at the Valero Texas Open before he tipped Spieth to contend at The Masters.
It turns out that Wagner does not need too much convincing. “When you think about certain players, certain venues, the current form doesn’t really matter. When you think about Augusta, Jordan Spieth has gone in with varying differences in form and competed really well there.
I think we’re seeing exactly what we need to see out of Jordan,” he said. “He’s been consistent, he’s been better off the tee, his iron play’s been good. I don’t think we’re seeing the big foul balls.
