Update:
It appears somebody else (we hope) is getting in on the joke. Jordan Spieth’s SBS Tournament of Champions parking sign no longer read “Golden Child” on Wednesday, but there was some lipstick left behind next to the two-time major champion’s name:
Yesterday Golden Child, today @JordanSpieth has lipstick on his parking sign. Assuming this wasn’t @JustinThomas34. At least not directly! pic.twitter.com/VLexedVOFI

Poor Jordan.
Original story:
Rickie Fowler and Danny Lee aren’t in this week’s SBS Tournament of Champions, but player-on-player pranks have crossed the Pacific.
Jordan Spieth does not like the nickname “Golden Child.” He’s made that known. Which is exactly why someone (ahem, Justin Thomas) altered his parking sign to that moniker.
