Yep, I was rooting for him to hold the 19 under and set the new record.
It was quite a 72 hole exibition he put on.

At that point, when he approached the 18th green, Spieth had it in the bag, and I think he did not want to take too long and keep all those spectators waiting, including his whole family. So he hurried his approach chip, mush sooner than all his previous chips. That is who Jordan Spieth is. He cared about the people more than his personal record. Just my opinion.
