THE OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP

[Chechem]

13th HOLE (long par 4):

Kuchar (-8) fortunate; misses the fairway right, but not in the bunkers.
Spieth (-8) is FAR FAR right of the fairway.  NUTS!  He just doesn't do this often.

 

K hit a great recovery to within 20'.  He waits there for Spieth.

Spieth's ball is a mess; on a steep hillside about 200yds away from a tough green surrounded by bunkers.  He takes an unplayable, and moves the ball 120 yards to a level area (and gets a penalty stroke).

After walking all over the practice area with a marshall, considering all sorts of solutions, Spieth drops the ball on a level area, but must play over a high dune to the green 200+ yards away.

He didn't like the shot, but at least he left the ball in a good area short of the green.  He can chip from there and hope to get down with a bogey.
