Jordan Spieth scrambled to a third-round score of 67 to put himself in the final group at the AT&T Byron Nelson in his home state, but even Spieth was stunned with his score given how wild he was off the tee. The No. 2 player in the world admitted he had "no confidence in his swing," which was easy to see during a nightmarish final round driving display.

Spieth missed five of his first 11 fairways Sunday and played that stretch of holes 2-over par, dropping to six shots behind playing partner Brooks Koepka on a day when the majority of the field was under par.

CBS' Peter Kostis broke down Spieth's swing using slow motion and concluded that Spieth's lower body is moving too quickly and is out of sync with his upper body.
