Danny Willett takes full advantage of Jordan Spieth’s astonishing collapse
Defending champion Spieth had led the tournament by four after six holes of his final round but a disastrous run after the turn saw the American drop six shots in three holes, including an astonishing quadruple bogey at the par-three 12th when the 22-year-old twice sent his ball into the water.
That opened the door for Willett, the world number 12 to assume the lead. He had started the day three behind Spieth at level par but slowly chipped away until he took control at the 14th with his fourth birdie of the day.
