Jordan Spieth insists the only thing on his mind when he tees off this afternoon at Whistling Straits will be the opportunity to lift the Wanamaker Trophy.
Masters Tournament and US Open champion Spieth heads into the final round of the US PGA Championship two shots behind leader Jason Day as he tries to become only the third player after Ben Hogan and Tiger Woods to win three Major Championships in a season.
The 22-year-old could have been battling to complete an unprecedented calendar Grand Slam this week after finishing a shot outside a play-off for the Open Championship at St Andrews, and also still remembers letting slip a chance to win the 2014 Masters.
And while the Texan admits he has a "chip on his shoulder" about his near misses, he is adamant that those thoughts will not distract him on the course today.
"It was very frustrating, not for the third leg, but just to have a chance to win another Major," Spieth said of missing a birdie putt on the 72nd hole at St Andrews.
"It would have been really cool, the history part of it, but at the same time when you look back, that's a Major that I had control of that I let slip away, which is the second one that I've done so.
"I certainly have a little chip on my shoulder this week that I want to get back from those last couple of holes at St Andrews, but that won't be in my head tomorrow.
"The only history I'll be thinking of when we step on the first tee is you can hoist the Wanamaker trophy tomorrow and make it happen.
"This isn't as much in my head off the course as it was to try and get the Grand Slam. At this point it would be really cool, but it isn't a Grand Slam. I'll go into tomorrow strictly for the history piece of trying to get my name on a different Major.
"It's a goal of mine to capture all four throughout my career. I've got a great opportunity to get the third right now."
Spieth, who will replace Rory McIlroy as World Number One with a victory if McIlroy, who is nine off the lead, does not finish outright second, added: "I don't think it gets any easier but it does feel a bit different each time you go through it, you get a bit more comfortable."
