Jordan wins the Fed-X cup, Two majors and a total of five golf Tournments in 2015. Not bad for a 22 year old. No doubt he will be PGA Player of the Year. If he avoids injury, he could be the next Super Star of the PGA.

Notice that when he talks about the future, he refers to "we" will be doing this/that; referring to all his team. Without naming any specific golfers, some think they are the chosen ones. Way to go Jordan!! 👍👍

Oops, I had Stenson winning in my DraftKings game. Ok, I had 6 but Speith was not one of them. Sooooo as it turns out I'm out of the money.

That being said super happy for the young man. Nothing about him I don't like. Classy kid at only 22 year of age. I really like this younger generation of golfers. The game is in good hands IMHO.

Congratulations to Jordan Speith. He is certainly one to the bright stars on the PGA Tour today.

One of the really great things about the tour these days however is that there are four or five players that seem like they could dominate for a given period.

I don't think that we're going to see the kind of domination by one player like we did in Tiger's days. I don't think that Jack had this kind of competition either. Yes, there were other great players in those eras, but I don't recall the big three (or four or five on today's tour) being so closely matched. Jack and Tiger were miles ahead of their second place rivals.

Today, Jordan, Rory, Jason Day, Rickie Fowler, Bubba, Henrik Stenson and a few others seem to be able to dominate for months at a time. I don't expect to see any of them remain the number one player in the world for years like Tiger did. In that sense, golf may be much more exciting to watch over the next ten years or so.

Me too!


I like my hero's to be admirable beyond their athletic skills....cause I am a female, I guess.

Jordan can hit it but he also has this wonderfully calm demeanor and acts and dresses like a kid any of us would be proud to call son or grandson. And he is caring of his handicapped sister too.

And your last sentence is a reflection of his inner spirit. Truly a good man.

Default How good was Spieths season?

Well, his caddy earned more than Phil Mickelson, and Phil won over $2 Million.
