“Conversations with Champions, presented by Sentry” is a new weekly series from Golfweek that is a collaboration with the Caddie Network. Each week, we’ll take you behind the scenes in a chat with the winning caddie from the most recent PGA Tour event. This week: Jordan Spieth and Michael Greller at the 2022 RBC Heritage.
Jordan Spieth and caddie Michael Greller have teamed up for another PGA Tour victory despite a “brain fart” on a short missed putt.
The duo has been working together for a decade now. Greller has been on the bag for all 13 of Spieth’s PGA Tour wins, including their most recent title at the 2022 RBC Heritage at Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head, South Carolina.
Spieth shot a final-round 66 and then needed a playoff to fend off Patrick Cantlay. But perhaps Spieth could’ve avoided extra golf if he could have managed to sink a short putt on the 18th hole at the end of his third round.
“Yeah, I mentioned it to Michael and to Annie afterwards. I said I knew, riding into the clubhouse to sign my card, I said I knew that that on 18 was going to cost me and I hoped it did in a way because, if it didn’t, it meant I just played a very average round. So I hoped I worked my way into contention in spite,” he said Sunday after his win.
“I was about as upset after the round yesterday as I’ve ever been in a golf tournament. There’s just no excuse for those kind of brain farts as a professional to myself,” he said. “But also to Michael, who’s working his butt off, to go out there and do that that could potentially affect the outcome of a tournament. And I’ve done that a number of times on this stretch in the last four weeks.”
