(Reuters) - Jordan Spieth's decision to compete in this week's RBC Heritage at Hilton Head in South Carolina just days after winning his first major at the Masters was described as "awesome" by his playing partner Matt Kuchar on Thursday.

Kuchar, who won last year's RBC Heritage, outscored Spieth by six shots in the opening round at Harbour Town Golf Links and heaped lavish praise upon his fellow American for playing his fourth successive week on the PGA Tour.
