Jordan Spieth ready for Justin Thomas ‘chirping’ as Rickie Fowler comment speaks volumes
Great friends Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth have been pushing each other into contention at the Valspar Championship
Rickie Fowler, Justin Thomas, and Jordan Spieth share an unbreakable bond on the PGA Tour. The trio often travel to tournaments together and provide support for each other through highs and lows. Initially known as golf’s ‘spring break group’ after a shared holiday, they thrive on friendly rivalry and banter on and off the course.
Fowler opened up about their camaraderie on Kay Adams’ Up and Adam Show. He said: “We are always friends, and I think your friends are the ones you want to beat the most. It’s fun when we do get paired together. It’s fun when your friends play well. But it’s even more fun when you beat your friends when they play well.”
When asked who he’d least like to lose to, Fowler didn’t hesitate, saying: “It’d probably be JT. JT chirps a little bit more.”
These candid remarks from Fowler highlight the tight-knit nature of their friendship and suggest that Spieth might need to brace for some extra ‘chirping’ from Thomas, who is turning up the heat at the current Valspar Championship in Florida.
With a brilliant six-under-par round of 65, Thomas catapulted himself into contention and now sits tied fifth on five-under, just two strokes behind the leading trio Nico Echavarria, Jacob Bridgeman and Viktor Hovland.
After a third-round 67, Spieth is tied 17th on three-under with the scene set for an intriguing final day. This tournament is the first time Thomas and Spieth have played together for the first three rounds since the 2018 Players Championship. However, they will be in separate groups for round four.
Reflecting on their friendly competition, Spieth insisted Thomas has much more of a chance of success than him. He said: “At the end, I wanted to get to where I was tied with him so we could just play again tomorrow. We always want to beat each other when we’re playing with each other and that pushes us to play better.

Djokovic learns fate in new home as Sabalenka addresses behaviour
Express Sport brings you the latest tennis news from the Paris Masters.
We’re reaching the business end of the Paris Masters, as eight players become four in the French capital. Jannik Sinner is the overwhelming favourite to lift the trophy after Carlos Alcaraz was dumped out by Cameron Norrie in the Spaniard’s opening match. Norrie was then beaten by Valentin Vacherot, whose amazing 10-match winning streak at Masters 1000 level came to an end when he lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Canadian star Auger-Aliassime will face Alexander Bublik in the semis. Bublik defeated Alex de Minaur, who is among those to have already qualified for the year-end ATP Finals. Sinner is through to his first Paris Masters semi-final after beating Ben Shelton. He’ll face defending champion Alexander Zverev, who survived a tough match against Daniil Medvedev.
Novak Djokovic is not involved in the Paris Masters, having decided to skip the event for the second year in a row, but he has learned his fate in the draw of next week’s ATP 250 in Athens. And over in Riyadh, the WTA Finals are about to get underway.
