Unpredictable Spieth eyes Grand Slam at PGA Championship

Jordan Spieth may be flying under the radar ahead of this week's PGA Championship given his recent form but he cannot escape talk about his latest chance at claiming the one trophy standing between him and the coveted career Grand Slam.

If Spieth can win the PGA Championship, which begins on Thursday at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, he would become only the sixth player to complete the coveted career Grand Slam of golf's four majors.

Spieth has fallen mightily from his hallmark 2015 form when
