Dogged Matt Kuchar can’t pull rabbit out of the hat

As Matt Kuchar walked to the first hole yesterday his game plan was simple. If he was to stand any chance of winning, he needed to take Jordan Spieth out of his comfort zone. He had to make the last round a dogfight!

To do that, he needed to start fast and hopefully take advantage of any early round jitters the two-time major champion, and overwhelming favourite, Spieth may have had.
