Jordan Spieth said he didn’t know quite how to react when Dustin Johnson missed two putts on the final hole to make the 21-year-old Texan the youngest player to win golf’s U.S. Open since Bobby Jones in 1923.

“I can’t seem to wrap my head around the finish,” Spieth said after Johnson three-putted from 12 feet with a chance to win or force an 18-hole playoff.
