Jordan Spieth.
Following a breathtaking spectacle, Jordan Spieth concluded the Memorial Tournament on a high note by tying for seventh place and taking home an impressive $600,000 in prize earnings. The 31-year-old golfer delivered a memorable performance despite facing a tense moment that had fans holding their breath.
During the tournament on June 1 at Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio, Spieth launched a shot that came dangerously close to spectators. Live footage from the Golf Channel shows fans instinctively ducking as the ball sailed just inches overhead. The moment went viral, capturing the intensity of professional golf and the precision required at the highest level.
Despite finishing nine strokes behind tournament champion Scottie Scheffler, Spieth held his own and tied for seventh place alongside four other golfers. According to Golfweek, his performance earned him a payout of $603,200, solidifying his position as one of the top earners of the weekend.
After the narrow miss with the crowd, Spieth quickly refocused and delivered a remarkable shot that landed only 22 feet from the hole, as reported by Newsweek. While a series of birdies and bogeys prevented him from advancing further, his resilience was evident throughout the final round.
Scottie Scheffler ultimately claimed the title, making history as the first player since Tiger Woods to successfully defend his Memorial Tournament title. This victory marked Scheffler’s third win on the 2025 PGA Tour season.
Off the course, Jordan Spieth’s personal life has also been filled with joy. Back in February, he and his wife Annie Verret announced that they are expecting their third child. Spieth shared the news during a February 19 episode of The Smylie Show, saying, “We have a third coming in July, so we’re quite busy.”
Already parents to three-year-old Sammy and one-year-old Sophie, the couple has chosen to keep further details private. However, Annie was spotted showing off her baby bump in her iconic white caddie jumpsuit at the Masters 3 Par Contest in April.
