Jordan Spieth Stuck Around to Congratulate Zach Johnson on His Open Championship Win
By Michael Shamburger
Jordan Spieth, who is arguably the greatest golfer in the world – four wins this year including two majors – and who almost won his third straight major in a row, stuck around over an hour to congratulate Zach Johnson on his 2015 Open Championship win.
@JordanSpieth stuck around more than an hour after his finish to congratulate Zach. Class move. And not the least bit surprising from him.

Last week at the John Deere Classic, the shoe was on the other foot. Spieth finished one-stroke ahead of Johnson, and Johnson stuck around to congratulate him after the playoff with Tom Gillis ended.
Wow.. Almost. Nothing quite like @TheOpen at St Andrews. We fought hard. Very proud of a role model and friend of mine @ZachJohnsonPGA
