SAN DIEGO, Calif. (Reuters) - Jordan Spieth, who is one of the top favorites for this week's U.S. Open, revealed on Tuesday that he hurt his foot recently but expects to be fine when the year's penultimate major gets underway.

The three-time major champion, who has enjoyed an impressive resurgence in recent months, had medical tape on his right ankle during his practice round at Torrey Pines on Tuesday. He said it was the result of a misstep that occurred last week.
