M-worth golfer out of the top 50 world ranking for the first time in over 3 years; Last win came in 2022
Jordan Spieth is out of the top 50 golfers in the world for the first time since 2021. The golfer was 48th last week and is now positioned 51st, one place behind Alex Noren. The $120 million-worth golfer (according to celebritynetworth.com) enjoyed the No. 1 world ranking during 2015 and 2016 for 26 weeks.
Spieth was in his peak form at the time, winning five titles in 2015, including the US Open and the Masters Tournament, and three in 2016, including the Open Championship.
Following that, he had three triumphs in 2017, one triumph in 2021, and his last victory came at the 2022 RBC Heritage. The golfer had no triumphs in 2023 and 2024. Spieth’s poor form in the last two years followed his wrist injury problems, which started before the 2023 PGA Championship.
He underwent surgery earlier this year and following that, he told Golfweek that he was trying to regroup himself physically. Speaking in September this year, Jordan Spieth said,
“I think it’s a great break for me. I’m gonna look at it that way, but at the same time, it’s like, in the middle of this, what can I be doing to stay sharp? What adjustments can I make? I’ll be kind of wet concrete coming back so I’ll be able to kind of mold things where I’ve been maybe struggling in some of my mechanics, I can get those mechanically sound.
“I’ve got enough time to wait until they’re very sound before I need to come back and be 100 percent. I’ve got to get the mobility back first and I need to get full mobility back before you then have to get the strength back. So stuff with the golf swing as I start back will start to feel very different week in and week out as I start to get the strength back in my left hand.”
