Michael Greller to Jordan Spieth: "That's the best bunker shot you've EVER hit!"
Jordan Spieth played an incredible 77-yard bunker shot during the third round of the PGA Tour's Waste Management Phoenix Open.
Probably the most disappointing thing about this Jordan Spieth bunker shot is the footage isn't great.
This moment came during the third round of the PGA Tour's Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale.
Spieth was playing No. 17. If you're an ardent golf fan you'll know this is a drivable par-4 as it's only 346 yards.
We say only, it's drivable for players like Jordan Spieth who have won multiple major championships and numerous PGA Tour titles.
There is a bit of water trouble here, which is why Spieth erred on the side of caution and tried to play a buttery cut back into the fairway.

Spieth didn't quite manage to do what he intended as he leaked his tee shot out right. His golf ball travelled 282 yards and settled in the fairway bunker.
According to Shot Tracker, Spieth had 77 yards to the pin. This was a magical shot from Spieth. And it got the seal of approval from his caddie Michael Greller.
So much so, that Greller reportedly said it was the best bunker shot he'd ever seen Spieth hit. That's quite a call considering Spieth has produced so many incredible moments down the years.
Who could forget Spieth holing out from the sand in a sudden-death playoff to capture the 2017 Travelers Championship?
The crowd went bonkers. He went bonkers.
