'Spieth possibly the most phenomenal putter I've ever seen'

The weekend was pretty phenomenal for 21-year-old Jordan Spieth.

But there is one part of his game that is phenomenal and will stand him in good stead.

Ernie Els' caddie Colin Byrne has seen the Masters champion up close and one thing sprung to mind when Off The Ball's Joe Molloy spoke to him tonight.

"The one striking feature of Jordan, apart from his solid game all round, is his putting. He is possibly the most phenomenal putter I've ever seen. He hits puts that if they don't go in, they're trying to go in. He doesn't seem to hit bad putts," said Colin, who also feels he is "wise beyond his years".

Former European Order of Merit winner Ronan Rafferty also praised Spieth's creativity and imagination on the course, which stood him in good stead at Augusta.

But he still would back World No 1 Rory McIlroy to come out on top in the next decade or so.
