Watch: Jordan Spieth drops his iron in disbelief as he misses the playoff putt on RBC Heritage 

Jordan Spieth lost to Matt Fitzpatrick in a dramatic playoff at the 2023 RBC Heritage. It took three extra holes to decide the winner. During the initial playoff hole, Spieth missed a 13-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole that could have secured his victory. He dropped his putter in shock and grabbed his head with both hands in disbelief.

You can watch Spieth's reaction in the video below:

Spieth later said that most of the time that putt goes into the hole, but it wasn't meant to be on Sunday.

“I think if I hit the same putt 10 times, it goes in eight times. It should go left at the very end there on the grain. It just wasn’t meant to be,” Spieth said, via GolfWeek.

On the next playoff hole, both players hit lovely tee shots on the par-3 17th. Once again, Spieth had a chance to seal the victory, but he failed to send the ball in, missing it from just 10 feet inside.

Fitzpatrick didn't give Spieth another chance and holed it in the third hole of the playoff to triumph at the Harbour Town Golf Links.

Fans had a few things to say about this missed opportunity for Spieth. Here's a look at some of the reactions:

"Tiger would never raise the putter on a miss."

"And if only @XSchauffele had had another couple of holes he'd have been in a 3 way playoff w them. Great tourney!"

"Jordan Spieth is the modern day Lee Jansen, win every thing early then never win again. Guaranteed."

"Sunday and #JordanSpieth …nothing better"

"All time great choker."
