Dr Ed Coughlan: Young gun Jordan Spieth’s focus on success changes the game

Jordan Spieth is not your traditional game-changer, but what he’s doing may turn out to be the saviour of golf, writes Dr Ed Coughlan.

Every now and then someone comes along and changes the game as we know it. Rugby had Jonah Lomu, basketball had Michael Jordan, and golf had Tiger Woods.

Before Lomu burst onto the scene, we were blissfully unaware that big men could move like that. Since, we are now even more demanding of our big men in rugby’s backline. They now have to be able to tackle, and offload, with soft hands. What next?
