Jordan Spieth Targets PGA Title In Scottie Scheffler Vs Jordan Spieth
Jordan Spieth said the easiest path in scottie scheffler vs jordan spieth is not to force the finish. At the 2026 PGA Championship at Aronimink, the 32-year-old said winning one more tournament would be this one, because it would complete his career Grand Slam.
“If I can win one more tournament in my life, it would obviously be this one for that reason,” Spieth said at the podium in Newtown Square, Penn. He followed it with a blunt formula for the week: “But the easiest way to do that is to not try to, in a weird way, you know.”
Spieth At Aronimink
The 108th PGA Championship opened its early-week media obligations at Aronimink Golf Club, where marquee names including Rory McIlroy, Cameron Young, Xander Schauffele and defending champion Scottie Scheffler were scheduled to speak before the opening round. Spieth was one of the central voices because the PGA Championship is the only major missing from his career Grand Slam bid.
He laid out the approach in practical terms: “Just go out and get ready for the first hole, get a good game plan in and attack it the way it needs to be attacked.” That is a narrow target for a player trying to close out one of golf’s defining career markers, and Spieth made clear he wants the same title that would finish the set.
Truist Championship Form
Last week gave him something to point to. Spieth led the field in Strokes Gained: Off-the-Tee at the Truist Championship, a useful sign that the driver is doing its part as he heads into the second major championship of the year.
That matters because the conversation around Spieth is no longer about whether he belongs in the mix. It is about whether he can turn a specific stretch of form into the one result that has eluded him, with Aronimink now the setting and Scheffler the reigning champion in the field.
108th PGA Championship
The last time Aronimink Golf Club hosted the PGA TOUR’s best, it was for the 2018 BMW Championship. This week, the course has the major-stage spotlight again, and Spieth arrives with one clear objective: win the PGA Championship and finish the career Grand Slam that has defined this chase.
