Jordan Spieth put himself in the mix with eagles on Nos. 13 and 15, shooting 65 to reach 9 under in his second tournament since offseason wrist surgery. Three-time PGA Tour winner Tom Kim also was 9 under after shooting 66.

The Dallas golfer got out to a solid start in this week’s Waste Management Phoenix Open, impressing viewers with an improbable birdie on the sixth hole at TPC Scottsdale. Spieth originally found himself in a tough spot when his tee shot carried to the right and landed in the rough near an obstacle of tree branches.

In his second event after returning from a lengthy absence, Jordan Spieth looked like his old self during the WM Phoenix Open on Thursday. The three-time major winner carded a 3-under 68 on Day One, a round that featured plenty of theater.
