Jordan Spieth is so unlikable


OBbogey5

Recommended Posts

Hate to go all negative here, but this morning I heard Peter Kostis gushing about the wonderful Jordan Spieth... what a fantastic player, person, asset to all mankind. This while Kostis was analyzing his iron play on that over-labeled slow-mo camera, Spieth, clearly, was 3/4 swinging a Vokey pitching wedge btw. It was so out of touch with reality.

 

The Truth is he's unrelatable, whiny, spoiled, entitled, cocky, slow, has no style whatsoever, walks weird (which is what we watch most with these guys), and boring to watch play golf. Oh well, Peter is wrong and I'm right. So be it.

 

I wouldn't have said anything if not for the exact opposite being portrayed by the joke that is the golf media.

Did Kostis say he was an asset to mankind? That doesn't sound like something he'd say

I'm not a fan of how he interacts with his caddy at times but I'm not there and in his shoes. I have no idea what really happens in those situations and can't say that I wouldn't act the same way.

 

He's definitely not one of my favorites but I don't dislike him. He's always polite and the way he loves and cares for his sister is top notch. His parents raised him right, which in this day and age , is something you rarely see.

The way he walked after he holed that bunker shot for the win was just painful to watch. It was so unlikable.

Don't let the Kostis hate get on Spieth. Jordan never asked for Kostis to tongue his butt.

He is whiny, I guess he isn't a style icon although I never thought about that until now so I guess I don't care much, but I don't really see the rest of the stuff in the OP.

 

He seems relatively humble, takes his success in stride, seems to care about his family and friends, and seems charitable. All in all he seems like an ok guy apart from the whining.

He still has some growing up to do in terms of his on course behavior (at times) however compared with most people his age I'd say he's mature beyond his peers. In terms of relating to him, I think he's one of the most relatable top players for amateurs.

Hate to go all negative here,

 

That's a lie.

 

You know you've been had when you are called out by the 'dark side'. Well played Darth.

 

PS - saw that commercial you did where you moved the ball with the force. You my friend are a legend.

 

But I must add, you do walk a little funny ; )

 

May the force be with you.
