Reed throws Spieth under bus during exchange with rules official

Patrick Reed became embroiled in a rules situation on the 11th hole at the Arnold Palmer Invitational on Sunday, and took a cheap shot at Jordan Spieth in the process.

Albeit slightly tongue in cheek, we hope, Reed got into a lengthy discussion with an on-site PGA Tour rules official before being told he would not receive the free relief he was requesting.

"I guess my name needs to be Jordan Spieth, guys," said Reed, who went on to finish tied seventh at Bay Hill.

Reed and Spieth have built up a successful history together as Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup partners.

Spieth was at the centre of the biggest rules decision of 2017 when he was given a drop on the driving range during the final round of The Open after taking an unplayable lie from an errant drive.

Both Reed and Spieth have been drawn in the same group at this week's WGC-Match Play, which could add a little bit of spice to Reed's latest comments.
