I've been learning the moves the best pros are doing and Kelvin Miyahira, Victor Rodriguez, Gordon Jarvis and Gabriel Writer have been instrumental in helping me understand those movement patterns. Definitely check out their stuff if you haven't already.
Jordan Spieth's left hand grip is in a neutral to slightly weak position while his right hand is in a standard strong position (V pointing at the right shoulder). The slightly weak position in the grip will force him to really supinate his wrists to square the clubface on the downswing. Spieth actually does this early at the top of the backswing (the bowed left wrist) just like Dustin Johnson (albeit not as extreme as him).
Spieth's head stays tall on the backswing, he Left Lateral Bends, and he has good trunk balance (his trunk moves slightly up and away from the ball which gives you more room to have the club, hands, arms, etc. in front of the body on the downswing). He also shifts into his right leg well, while straightening it, which is a key among legendary ball strikers.
In the transition he has a great squat and marching move where he gets up on his right toe and begins to straighten his left (this move requires not sliding to the left). Notice his left foot supinating (or rolling over onto the outside of his foot) which indicates that he is continually rotating which is important in maintaining the low rate of clubface closure. His hands have some ulnar deviation and a little supination at impact which leads to his solid impact position and stable clubface for great consistency.

Notice how his clubface is already partially squared towards the target. This decreases the amount of clubface closure through the ball.
Note how well Spieth has his left wrist bowed back and that his left elbow is pointing down the line.
You can tell that his rate of closure is minimal with how square the clubface is at this point after impact. This is how the pros are so consistent.
