Jordan Spieth makes a return to The Smylie Show, joining Smylie Kaufman to discuss his fall 2024 wrist surgery, his ensuing recovery process, and returning to contention on the PGA TOUR at the 2025 WM Phoenix Open. Jordan and Smylie recap the past few weeks in golf, including a wild TGL tripleheader in progress during their conversation, and Jordan playing alongside eventual champion Ludvig Åberg at the Genesis Invitational.
