PGA Tour Top 10 Power Rankings: Genesis Open
By Sam Belden
Jordan Spieth — 3rd
In his career at the Genesis Open, Spieth is just two-for-four, but keep in mind that one of those missed cuts came in 2012, before he turned professional. Since shedding his amateur status, he’s picked up a pair of top 15s at Riviera, including a tie for fourth in 2014, when he finished just one stroke out of a playoff. In terms of recent form, there’s nothing to be concerned about — Spieth has notched six consecutive worldwide top 10s in a row, including two wins, so he’s been enjoying an exceptionally hot stretch.
The only deficiency in Spieth’s game since the calendar turned to 2017 has been his iron play, but he struck it well at Pebble Beach last week, so there’s no reason for concern there. Look for him to continue his great run.
