Jordan Spieth tried, failed to chip marshmallows in Jimmy Fallon's mouth

Jordan Spieth was on “The Tonight Show” with Jimmy Fallon on Monday night, part of a Big Apple promotional tour for The Barclays, the first of four FedEx Cup playoff events.

Bethpage Black is back as host of the playoff opener after a four-year absence, and that’s something Spieth and Fallon discussed. However, the conversation quickly turned to other stories, including Spieth’s video from the Texas Swing when he (on his second attempt) chipped a marshmallow that he caught in his mouth with a dive. So, Fallon, who loves playing games with his guests, asked Spieth to chip marshmallows his way in hopes that the host might snag one with his mouth.

The two-time major winner gave it four shots, with three close calls, including two hitting Fallon in the mouth before the last one hitting him right in the eye.
