SpiethJordan Spieth could feel the pressure.
His wife, Annie, wanted them to get an RV.
“We tried one at the Harding Park PGA (Championship in 2020), so we tested it out there,” said Spieth, who opened the Sony Open in Hawaii with a 6-under 64 to share the first-round lead with Chris Kirk and Taylor Montgomery. “Annie wanted one for a while.
“I didn’t really want one prior to (son) Sammy, like, knowing he would sleep through the night and schedule and all that,” he continued, “because close quarters compared to renting a house.”
Spieth, 29, is a 13-time PGA TOUR winner. He is coming off a T13 at the Sentry Tournament of Champions in Maui last week, and racked up a 5-0-0 record at the Presidents Cup. He seemed to have it all.
But he didn’t have an RV, even though “the bus” has been a staple on the PGA TOUR for years, with converts including Jason Day, John Daly, Jimmy Walker, and others. With their son sleeping through the night, the Spieths finally bought their own rig last fall, and Jordan stayed in it by himself the week of THE CJ CUP in South Carolina.
