Jordan Spieth endured a frustrating third round at The Players Championship, culminating in an emotional outburst on the 16th hole at TPC Sawgrass. After finding the water with his approach shot, the three-time major champion launched his club in frustration, shocking spectators. Spieth’s struggles on the challenging course saw him slip to two-under, leaving him nine shots behind leaders Akshay Bhatia and Min Woo Lee.

Despite earlier hopes of closing the gap, Spieth battled erratic play, carding five birdies but offsetting them with four bogeys before his costly mistake on 16. The blustery conditions added to the difficulty, as his attempt to reach the green in two ended in disaster. A penalty drop and a subsequent double-bogey seven only compounded his woes, making his bid for the title even more challenging.

Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy also faced difficulties in round three, finishing four shots off the lead after a turbulent back nine. As the tournament heads into the final round, the unpredictable conditions and high stakes promise an intense finish at TPC Sawgrass.
