Jordan Spieth, Patrick Reed to face each other in Match Play

Jordan Spieth and Patrick Reed enjoy few things more than trying to beat each other, and that’s when they are partners. The stakes are higher in the Dell Technologies Match Play in Austin, Texas: Win or go home.

Spieth and Reed did their part Thursday by winning their matches for a second straight day to set up a meeting Friday to determine who wins the group and advances to the weekend of this World Golf Championship.

Spieth dodged trouble early against Li Haotong, winning 4 and 2. Reed just got by Charl Schwartzel on the 18th hole.

Reed and Spieth are 7-2-2 as partners in the Presidents Cup and Ryder Cup.
