A couple weeks ago, the golfer posted a photo on Instagram as he hangs out with his friends and girlfriend, Annie Verret, on the back of a boat where they all seem to having a blast.
And now on Wednesday, SB Nation posted an interview with Spieth who mentioned something pretty crazy that happened on this vacation when he and his friends were fishing for tuna off the side of the boat when sharks kept coming up.

"The captain was scaring them off, banging on the boat and on the water," the golfer said. "And all of a sudden, it just rips back down again. And I almost got pulled in. and it was so much heavier."
This led into a battle with the rod until Spieth decided to take a bathroom break. When he came back, something surfaced from the water when he grabbed hold of the rod again. Only this time, he happened to discover something he didn't expect.
"What surfaces was like a 12-foot long, 300-pound black tip shark that had eaten this tuna and then had hooked itself," Spieth said. "So I guess I caught both in one because I got that shark."
Since there was no room in the boat for the shark, it was let back into the water.
