Jordan Spieth to Undergo Wrist Surgery

Jordan Spieth has announced plans to undergo surgery on his left wrist after struggling with a torn tendon sheath for over a year. His decision follows a disappointing performance at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, where he finished 68th and was eliminated from the PGA Tour playoff contention. Spieth indicated that the surgery is necessary to repair the tendon and that recovery could take approximately three months, during which he intends to take his time returning to the sport. The injury has significantly impacted his performance, leading to only three top-10 finishes this season and missing the cut in seven tournaments. Spieth, who was once ranked as high as No. 10 in the world, has seen his ranking drop to No. 43, marking a frustrating end to his season. He expressed a desire to approach rehabilitation slowly, emphasizing that he has no immediate rush to return.
