Jordan Spieth Reveals if He’ll Play Open Championship Amid Baby Watch

Published

Pro golfer Jordan Spieth didn’t have the Travelers Championship he had hoped for in mid-June.

He withdrew from the tournament due to a neck injury, and it has left him on a hiatus ever since. Now, fans are getting an update on his injury and whether wife Annie Veret’s third-trimester pregnancy will impact his play at the 153rd Open Championship at the Royal Portrush Golf Club in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, from July 17-20.

Spieth shared the news on the Up & Adams Show with Kay Adams about the state of his recovery.

“I’m good,” he explained. “It was a weird neck spasm thing that just came up, and I just could not get through the round. It was a strange deal. I have a good team here that I work with, and I knew it was going to be short-lived, and it was only a few days.”

The 31-year-old athlete revealed that his health is back on track and he’s ready to tee off. “I have been back to full strength getting ready for The Open Championship next week, our last major of the year, and then the play-offs after that. A lot of big events left, but I have no restrictions, which is great.”

The 31-year-old athlete revealed that his health is back on track and he’s ready to tee off. “I have been back to full strength getting ready for The Open Championship next week, our last major of the year, and then the play-offs after that. A lot of big events left, but I have no restrictions, which is great.”

Even though he’s raring to go, Spieth noted that his home life will be a top priority ahead of his game. “Yes, I will be at The Open Championship. I am going to be a bit of a late arrival, but I will be there. Luckily, I played The Open at this course in Northern Ireland six years ago, so I won’t feel like I will have to learn a new place. But just trying to get all the work in before baby comes and make sure everybody is good, and then I will head overseas.”

So, fans shouldn’t question his whereabouts in the week leading up to the Open Championship; he will be making sure his wife and newborn are OK after the delivery. The couple are already proud parents of two children, son Sammy, 3, and daughter Sophie, 1. Spieth and Veret are high school sweethearts who got engaged in 2017 and married in 2018.

The Full Swing cast member credits his wife for being his rock, whether he’s at his peak or working his way through a golfing slump.

“She’s just been that person that said, ‘Whatever you need to do, I’m here to support you, let me know how I can help, let me know when too much is too much, let me know when it’s not enough,” he praised Veret in April 2021 at the Valero Texas Open press conference, per Golf Magazine. “She’s been really unbelievable.”

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.

Tennis fans across the globe are rallying behind Holger Rune, after the Danish star shared an emotional but determined message following his devastating Achilles injury that abruptly ended his 2025 season.

The 22-year-old, known for his fierce competitiveness and electric energy on court, was forced to retire during the Stockholm Open semifinals after collapsing in pain mid-match against Ugo Humbert. Moments later, Rune confirmed what fans feared — a torn Achilles tendon, one of the toughest injuries any athlete can face.

But instead of silence or despair, Rune chose to face the challenge head-on. In a heartfelt message posted to social media, he wrote:

“It’s gonna be a while before I can step on court again… It’s tough. I had so much joy out there, and it’s unbearable to think I won’t feel that energy for some time. But I’ll be back — stronger, wiser, and more grateful than ever.”

His words, filled with pain yet overflowing with resilience, immediately resonated with millions. Fellow players, coaches, and fans flooded his post with encouragement, calling him a “fighter”, a “true champion in spirit”, and the embodiment of perseverance.

Rune has already undergone successful surgery and, in a move that stunned many, shared photos of himself training from a seated position — refusing to let recovery stop his momentum. The images showed a young man focused not on what he’s lost, but on what he can rebuild.

Even as he faces months of rehabilitation, Rune’s story has become a symbol of mental toughness and grace under pressure. His family and team remain by his side, reminding the tennis world that this setback doesn’t define his career — it refines it.

As one fan beautifully wrote:

“He may be off the court, but his spirit is still winning matches.”

For Holger Rune, this isn’t the end of a season — it’s the start of a comeback story that could inspire a generation. 💥🔥
