Play suspended due to lightening...  Round 2 will resume in place Saturday at 7:30 a.m. ET.

Spiethcoaster better get it together Saturday morning on his final 4 holes... currently T41, 10 shots back and in danger of missing the cut...

Spiethcoaster too damn inconsistent...

Made cut, but back 9 of Round 3 killing him again.   Struggling to maybe get par on #15 (par5)

Spieth hasn’t been able to put four rounds together for four years. 

Yeah it sucks Spieth can't seem to get his game back to a high enough level to win again...  But he is always convinced he's about to turn the corner and be "back again"

Recent article:  

Jordan Spieth is virtually locked into the field for the first FedEx Cup playoff tournament (FedEx St. Jude Championship), and with a very good chance of advancing to the second. The three-time major winner still has high hopes for this season, but he also thinks he'll be all the way back by this time next year. 

Spieth is viewing this end of the season as a stepping stone to reach the top of his game.  "Next year's going to be a really good year for me, I can feel it. It's all coming along. I'll be healthy, and just structurally putting, the mechanics are all getting really, really close. One good offseason should get me nailed down to where I could be as good as I've been. That's my goal."

Just so I'm clear, the top 70 based on cumulative points get in "playoff"

Then, top 50 finishers in 1st event (cumulative points NO LONGER MATTER) move to BMW

then, top 30 finishers at BMW (cumulative points NO LONGER MATTER) move to Tour Championship

then, low gross score (no starting strokes "headstart") at Tour Championship wins it along with the big pile of money for being the "FedEx Cup champion".

Is that correct?

Spieth could climb back to being a top 20 type guy but his days of being a top 5 player in the world are over...could he win another major, sure, but his consistency of iron play is gone, and when you lose that well...

Spieth still has talent but his mental game is gone. He is a guy who gets a bad break and does the "woe is me" act instead of shaking it off and continuing to press on. You can tell he just always thinks bad luck is looming and it's hard to play golf that way when you just expect bad things.

First two events are still awarding points (quadrupled I believe). Then the Tour Championship is a regular 72 hole event for the top 30.
