“Somewhat typical round for me at the Masters, I guess,” Jordan Spieth said with a laugh.

A triple bogey from the trees, a fortunate chip-in for eagle and plenty of well-struck shots added up to a 1-under 71 for Spieth in the opening round at Augusta National.

“Live and learn, I think,” Spieth said.

“It’s tough to swallow, because knowing the golf course is very difficult and I was 1 under par, punch it to the fairway, you make a bogey, you’re at even par at the turn, that’s a pretty good score.

But unfortunately, I’m still in that 18-under mode from last week” – his winning total at the Valero Texas Open, where he ended a nearly four-year winless drought – “and trying to capitalize on and gain every stroke I can.

“I’m glad the course is firm if you’re six back after one round,” Spieth said.

I’m just going to assume that this golf course is going to be just as challenging going forward and pick your spots.”.
