Spieth: I have got to do better

  • Third round leader Jordan Spieth reacts to his play Saturday (9th April) at the 80th Masters tournament

    SOUNDBITE (English): Jordan Spieth

    "You know, that's what's tough for me is those three holes, you should be able to hit the three greens in regulation, and if you play them 1‑over, you play them 1‑over, but they are not the hard holes out here. That's what's tough. If I'm at 5‑ , 6‑under, even just saying that right now, I can't think that way. That certainly brings anyone who is over par almost out of the tournament. And now with very little wind tomorrow, someone gets on a run and shoots 6‑, 7‑under, you know, I know I have to shoot a significant under par round tomorrow in order to win this tournament, when I could have played a different style of golf like I did on Sunday last year."

    "I've certainly felt better last year on Saturday night than I do right now. I had a four‑shot lead and everything was going right. Just came off a great up‑and‑down on 18. Yeah, I felt much better ‑‑ I felt much better about my position last year than I do right this second, just because of what happened in the last 40 minutes. But at the same time, I feel that if I can get to the range, I straighten the ball out tomorrow, I get back to the same routine I was just in, I certainly think that down the stretch, I'm better prepared now than I was at this point last year. It's hard for me to say that because we just answered every statement made on the golf course last year on Sunday. So I can't rely on the putter the way I did today. I've got to strike the ball better. "
