When asked how he felt about the game at the moment, Spieth had a really encouraging answer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Everything&#8217;s fine. Every part of my game at one point was as good as it&#8217;s been so far this year. And I just had to put it all together,&#8221; Spieth said on the PGA Tour&#8217;s social media.<\/p>\n<p>advertisement<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m trying to stay a little bit in front of the fade, working on my shot delivery like I hit it right there.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m lining up on the left when I&#8217;m trying to pin on the right. Keep your hands nice and low so you don&#8217;t give in to them because you&#8217;re doing so well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It sounds like Spieth is fine-tuning his game instead of exploring himself like he has the past few seasons. That&#8217;s a great sign. I feel like he&#8217;s so close.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jordan_Spieth_explains_why_Memorial_Tournament_feels_like_a_major\"><\/span>Jordan Spieth explains why Memorial Tournament feels like a major<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Memorial Tournament is one of the premier events on the PGA Tour calendar.

It was the best putting surface I&#8217;ve ever seen in my life.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We knew we had an incredible facility here, so we&#8217;re going to bring the whole family here, take a little bit of time to get settled in, and then we&#8217;re going to tackle it honestly like it&#8217;s the majors, because we&#8217;re going to play like the majors.
