PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) —
Jordan Spieth had to work
his way through about 100
people who blocked his
path to the first tee at Peb-
ble Beach. They held out
tournament tickets, caps,
glossy photos and Masters
flags for him to sign, and
some asked him to stop for
pictures.
Unusual about this day is
what happened after he fi-
nally reached the tee and
drilled a 3-iron down the
middle.
The crowd followed along
for the next four hours.
The golf course that Robert
Louis Stevenson described
as “the most felicitous
meeting of land and sea”
is magnificent under warm
sunshine and a blue sky,
so it was not a waste of
anyone’s time, even for a
practice round. They want-
ed to see Spieth, the No. 1
player who is still trying to
get used to the attention.
