Heard a quick blurb on TGC that Spieth played new irons at the Barclays...

Why would you change irons now and not wait until after the playoffs?

Doesn't look good for Titleist, although it makes sense they'd be anxious for him to play new irons.

Does not make sense to me... the casual observer. Wait ... until the new season begins.

If it's true he changed clubs, then he may not be a factor for any of the Fed Ex events. Changing clubs takes time to get used to....just ask Rory. Some may criticize the timing, but his #1 goal before winning the Fed Ex Cup is defending at Augusta, and the more time he can give himself to get used to the new clubs, the better in his case. If you're an accomplished player and are going to change clubs, you want to do it right after the last major to give yourself the most time to prepare for the next major championship. I believe Rory did it right after the 2012 PGA.

I don't think it's that big of a deal. The new AP2's are the same exact head profile/size.

The fact that the holes were 196 and 228 yards makes it even more ridiculous.

If Jason Day has really figured it all out, then the next ten years are going to be nuts. Spieth, Rory, Day are going to be beating each other up for a long time. Throw in an always-improving Rickie Fowler and you've got quite a group on your hands.

We all know that the golf gods give it and take it away.  He's got it figured out for now, but as we've seen with others that doesn't mean it will remain figured out in the future.  He is playing great and I like him as a player so I hope he, Jordan and Rory battle it out for many years to come.

I agree; he'll have his off days. But I think he could be one of those multi-win a year guys on Tour, which would be incredible.

Zac Blair looks like he may have a little Hobbit blood in him. Probably has furry feet.

I don't know if it's all about Jason figuring it out ... mental wise, yes he has. He's had back and hand issues for the last 2 years. I saw him in March on Trackman where he was working on patterns that would prevent a back injury -- nice guy, laughed a lot, even when his caddie/father figure locked the keys in the car... great sense of humor.

He is pouring them in today... (yes, I am Captain Obvious)

5 shot lead and 2 to play. I could win it from here! Good for him. This kind of play is fun to watch!

Let's say JD wins again in the Playoffs, and picks up the FedEx Cup title. That would give him five victories for the season; would he have a stronger claim to Player of the Year honors over Jordan Spieth?


It's tough to beat a Masters and US Open...

A little off topic but is Day's child a boy or a girl? I never questioned that the kid was a girl a few weeks ago but I swear they just said "he" when talking about him/her.
