Jordan Spieth’s PGA Tour absence explained as golf fans sweating ahead of The Open
Jordan Spieth suffered an injury at the Travelers Championship last month, and since then the PGA Tour star has been absent from action with The Open around the corner
Jordan Spieth is absent from one of his favorite PGA Tour events, the John Deere Classic, this week, but it appears to be for good reason.
Spieth has not featured since suffering an injury and withdrawing from the Travelers Championship last month. The injury came at an awkward time for the three-time major winner, with The Open Championship at Royal Portrush right around the corner.
A PGA Tour fan favorite, Spieth will have left many concerned that he would not be ready to feature in the final major of the season in Northern Ireland, especially after missing this week’s trip to TPC Deere Run, the venue where he won his maiden PGA Tour title.
However, his absence is expected to be more centered around his family rather than an injury, after Spieth revealed that his wife Annie is expected to give birth to their third child at some point over the next week. “It’s disappointing,” he said of recently pulling out of the Travelers.
“We’re having a baby here in a couple of weeks, so I’ll have some time off now, obviously, to get healthy, but hopefully, after a few days, I’ll go through the right process to just get right back to where I was.” Going off Spieth’s timeline, the birth could well take place this week.
He also opted to skip the Genesis Scottish Open, which begins next Thursday. Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, and Xander Schauffele are participating in the build-up to The Open. Despite the injury and the birth of his third child, Spieth has made no indications that he will miss The Open.

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.
