Jordan Spieth Hopes For A Big Texas Welcome
4 years agoIt has been a rough two seasons for Jordan Spieth, who has seen his stock plummet from world No. 1 to his current ranking of 56th. We could hammer away at all the statistical information that has plagued the American over that duration of time, and they are all reasons worth mentioning, but the most significant deterrent comes down to risk versus reward. Part of the attraction around the 14-time winner worldwide during his poor stretch of golf was that we were getting him at minimal ownership. Contrarian takes can pay handsomely in DFS golf, and a player such as Spieth can be the Golden Child to fantasy riches when all goes right. Ironically, the 26-year-old never quite seemed to pay off his investors, yet a three-month break has turned the fantasy community into believers that something has changed. Sure, we could see Spieth perform again in his home state, but there is a massive difference between taking that chance at sub-five percent ownership and beating that drum when he is one of the highest owned players on the board.
