Jordan Spieth – Wrist improvement, should be OK for PGA season

Jordan Spieth said he is progressing well following wrist surgery and expects to be ready for the start of the 2025 PGA Tour season.
“I think by 2025, by Jan. 1, it’s my goal to be tournament ready,” Spieth told Golfweek in a Q&A published Monday. “And for me that wouldn’t be just going out and seeing what it’s like, you know, but I’m expecting to play on my roof.”
Sporting a cast on his left wrist in his first public appearance since the surgery, Spieth appeared at a fundraiser at Brookhaven Country Club just outside Dallas.
Spieth, 31, first suffered a wrist injury in 2023. Last entered FedEx St. Jude Classic at TPC Southwind in Memphis in mid-August.
“I would say the number 1 reason why I ended up doing it is that it affects the way I live at home,” he said. “As it receded and I couldn’t put it back in, it would be like if I took my daughter out of the bath, put on a sweatshirt or just randomly it would be like, I didn’t. ‘I want it to continue, and it happens more and more.
Spieth has won 3 majors and 13 overall on the PGA Tour, but has been absent since the RBC Heritage in April 2022. He started the 2024 season by playing third at The Sentry and tied for sixth at the WM Phoenix Open, but had only one top-10 all year while missing seven cuts.
Spieth did not earn an entry into the 2025 season-opening tournament, the Sentry. He can, however, play in the Sony Open in Hawaii on Jan. 9-12 at Waialae Country Club.
