I'm really happy with the finish.

Michael Jordan and Michael Phelps are the greatest to ever do what they did, and I'm not. But if you believe that you are, then you're almost as good as being that.

Golf, to its foundation, is a game of integrity and one that encourages us to give back, kind of be ambassadors, role models, I guess, for kids - whether they like golf or not.

PGA of America has been very good to me; played some of the Junior Ryder Cups, and those go down as some of the best experiences I've had on a golf course.

Stats are important to me, especially the ones related to scoring. You're going to miss fairways and greens out here, so how you play from the sand really matters.

I don't think people can watch University of Texas basketball or football games with me - really, anything Texas is playing - without wanting to punch me in the face. I'm as big a Longhorn fan as you'll find.

Having inched closer and accomplished some of my major goals in the sport of golf, no pun intended, why not work as hard as I can to attain those goals if I'm already feeling like I'm playing well and getting more and more comfortable.

The generation that I'm in is extremely talented, and those that are still in school, my peers that are my age that will be out here really soon, you guys will see, will make a pretty easy transition on the PGA Tour. I don't think they will have a problem at all. The game is getting younger, and the game is getting better.

A lot of weekend players struggle with putting because they have too much tension in their hands and arms, both at address and during the stroke. Tension can turn a technically perfect motion into a herky-jerky mess, especially on those knee-knockers.

If you are going to talk negative about a place, you're almost throwing yourself out to begin with because golf is a mental game.

I have a lot of confidence in my game. I love to play with confidence, be aggressive, and that's just how I've always done it.

You have to think of them as your peers. You can't really - when you're on the course and looking up to anybody, you're saying, 'Wow, that's so and so,' that's when you get into trouble. For instance, if you're paired with them, then what do you do?

Every tournament I go to, I'm kind of learning a little bit mentally and on the course.

I have started up the Jordan Spieth Family Foundation. My little sister has special needs, so I started out trying to help kids with special needs. We have moved on to military now and a third pillar in junior golf, trying to help grow it back home.

The nine I had never seen before went really well, and the nine I played yesterday went poorly.

If you told me what last year was going to be at this time last year, I would have said I’m obviously very pleased, but I can also look back and say I really wish I had won three or four events, given the amount of times I had a chance on Sunday.

For me, it's maybe different from a lot of guys, for the first time in years, I feel like I've got some momentum.

I didn’t think we were going to get penalized because it’s a charity event.

It’s one thing to win it over here and it is a lot easier to do so. It's harder to win over there, but if we play like we did this week, the score will look the same over there in a couple years, and that’s what we’re here for.

We had Americans finish one-two at the Open Championship this year.

I don’t really think that it makes that much of a difference on the style of course. It’s tough and fair, and if we see it in some colder, windier conditions.
