Spieth had always said he would play in the Nelson this year, but now has made his commitment official.
After his 16th-place showing in 2010, Spieth made the cut again the following year and missed his high school graduation ceremony while playing in the third round. Spieth finished tied for 37th at the Nelson last year at 2 under.
