MEXICO CITY Chapultepec Golf Club is an enigma, and its just not the thin air and elevation that causes confusion.On paper, the layout stretches to 7,345 yards, but because of Mexico Citys elevation (about 7,800 feet above sea level) it effectively plays to something closer to 7,100 yards and lulls players into an aggressive mindset.It was a balance that, as late as Wednesday afternoon, Jordan Spieth was wrestling with; and even after a second-round 67 moved him into contention, it was still in the back of his mind.

You want to pick a game plan and stick to it, but then you stand on some of these tee boxes and go, man, if I hit a good drive here, I have a chip shot. It's kind of hard to take a 5-iron off the tee, we're not used to that, said Spieth, who is tied for 14th and six shots off the lead. You feel like you need to make a lot of birdies, but I believe [the winning score] will be somewhere around that again, around 14 under again.Of course, the bigger question for Spieth heading into the weekend at the WGC-Mexico Championship is probably his putting. On Friday, he needed 31 putts and missed three attempts inside 5 feet, which led to a little extra time on the practice green after his round.They weren't the greens, they were me, he said of his missed opportunities on the greens. I did hit a lot of really good putts that I thought were either going to go in that bumped and stayed short or stayed straighter or broke. But it's almost there, it feels good.
