AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) -- The green jacket is all Jordan Spieth needs for an identity. He is the Masters champion.
It's just not going to help him get rid of a nickname he picked up late last year from a few PGA Tour players that goes against the way he was raised and irritates him more than a three-putt bogey.
Golden Child.
''It was either Colt Knost or Robert Garrigus ... I'm not sure who started with the nickname,'' Spieth said Tuesday during a break in his New York media tour. ''But it's not nice what I say to them when they say it to me. I've been working on trying to keep it quiet. And this week isn't going to help.''
It surfaced again even before he teed off in his record-setting win at Augusta National.
