Down but far from out: Spieth refreshed, refocused for 2019

After a down year, Jordan Spieth begins 2019 refreshed and refocused. But the game marches on and he will have to reload quickly or get left behind. But, according to one notable swing coach, Spieth has more than a little fine-tuning in order to correct whatever ails his putting.Hank Haney, who coached Tiger Woods from 2004-10, told ESPN.com that Spieth appears to be battling the yips."He's got to get his putting figured out," Haney said. "I think he will. But he has to. And I think that spilled into the rest of his game. When I watch him putt, he visibly has the yips. You watch his hands on short putts and there is a tremor in there. I don't care if the putt goes in or doesn't. He was center cut on his first putt at the Ryder Cup. But his hands were shaking. He had to miss more short putts than anybody on Tour."Spieth has played two events in the 2018-19 season, finishingT-55 and missing a cut. Hes currently 40th on Tour in stroke gained: putting.
