Jordan Spieth plays down gutter talk as Rory McIlroy warms up for Masters

• Spieth third-round shot landed in clubhouse gutter
• McIlroy finishes third with final-round 66 at Texas Open

Jordan Spieth has said he did not deliberately hit his ball on to the clubhouse roof during the third round of the Texas Open.

Clips of Spieth went viral after events in San Antonio on Saturday afternoon. The Texan found the side of a ditch with his second shot to the par-five 18th. From there, he hit away from the hole and into guttering on the clubhouse; it was assumed he did it on purpose after he received a free drop. Rather than make the most of his freakish scenario, he three-putted the hole for a double bogeyseven.
